You respond to an ad which claims you can make a potential $30,000 per year reading books at home. The ads indicate that all you have to do is ask for a list from which you pick a book, submit a report and then get paid right away.

You send along your one time fee of $57 and what they send you back is a listing book of publishers, without even contact addresses. After tracking down several publishers, you discover from them that publishers don’t hire people for this purpose sight unseen and certainly not without prior experience and proper educational or vocational background.
