>
>The job offered ad for drivers to ferry topless dancers and
>   "escorts" from job to job in Miami, Fla. attracted attention. The pay:
>   $5,000 per week in cash plus "benefits". Those who applied were asked
>   to wire an $865 deposit, which they were told would be refunded after
>   their first assignment. But no one was ever given any assignments,
>   investigators say. Those who sent deposits were hit up again and again
>   for "hidden job-related expenses"; one idiot sent $8,000 in total. In
>   all, 43 applicants, male and female aged 19 to 78, sent an average of
>   eight payments each. The alleged advertisers, Gary Janiak Jr., 34, and
>   Tracy Silverstone, 22, have been charged with 333 counts of felony
>   fraud. (Miami Herald)
