This is the most insulting employment ad I have ever seen. You can find it on Craigslist Western Mass:
"Business Man Looking for All Writers"
"I need help with meeting the demand of technological and shopping reviews for a company that I work for. All of my works and "assisted" works all go under a ghost writer name. Therefore, your name will not be associated with the work.
For every 400 word article that you write for me, I will personally send to your check account $3. Yep, it is that easy. I also assist in giving you the topics that need to be "reviewed".
I am looking for about 20 people right now.
Please only serious replies."
Please, only serious ads. Be real.

WTF? Are you kidding me?!
This reminds me of some lawyer ads that were around when I was (shudder) in the legal field. One ad said something about how you would work 7a-7pm M-F and then 7a-5p Saturday (I think were the hours) and earn "low pay", around $35,000 (contrary to popular belief, lawyers in small firms do start at around this amount. Take my word on that one). It was a serious ad and the really sad thing is that I'm sure many desperate lawyers applied.
