A help wanted ad appeared in our local newspaper: Wanted -- Mobile Art Car Wrap. It said you could make $500/week just by having one of those advertising wraps on your car. It said to e-mail the address if interested. I e-mailed and got a reply explaining the deal and asking for some basic information to start my application -- it asked for my name, address, phone, make and model of car, and miles driven each week.

I received a second e-mail that said I was accepted and would receive a Bank Check for a certain amount. I have to cash the check, keep $500 for my first week\'s payment, and wire the rest by Money Transfer to some location. He said I would get the specific information when I received the check by Fed Ex or USPS.

The name on the e-mail is the following:

Then had a couple more emails back and forth till the last one and told me the same but mibe is $300 a week. And said I would have to send them money to get it wrapped.
