Ok, so I have been getting private leads from this real estate company. Every time they get more specific and lower their rates. I have answered it twice because it said "we highly reccomend that you answer this" but I had a bad feeling. This time they said they are only paying $15 per spot.

I should run, right?

Thanks, I knew that. I just felt funny since V123 was saying I should answer it.

Can I copy and paste what they said here for your entertainment pleasure or is that frowned upon?

I got a private lead the day before yesterday....It's addressed specifically to me, but something about it seems not right. What do you all think? and if you got this same thing addressed only to you, I'd like to know. I responded, but changed a thing here and there. I've asterisked out the actual name. and left out the actual 2 lines I was asked to read.

Hi there Tom how are you,

I'm a Producer for a nationally syndicated Sports Radio Adventure Show in Canada for ***** Entertainment. We are interested in your voice services for a job however we would like you to audition 2 simple lines first if possible...
