Default Insurance Scams?
I keep getting calls and email about working for an Insurance company and you don't need sales experience. One today said they'd load me $40,000 to start a business. I don't like sales of insurance in the first place, because I think Health Insurance in America sucks / is a big for profit business with little real care for the policy holders.

Anyone work or try out these Health Insurance Sales jobs? Or are they a big scam?

Someone cold calling you to come work for them has not got much chance of being legit.

There are many legitimate insurance/financial services positions. Some want you to become a franchise, others are looking for sales people. If they're a recognized company, I wouldn't assume it's a scam. However, that $40K is likely seed money for you to franchise an agency. It's not my cup of tea, but might be suitable for someone.
