I was on the receiving end of a get rich quick scheme...
...namely identity fraud. A good 10 years ago, I had a housemate who turned out to be a complete bastard. He had loans, credit cards in my name to the tune of 36,000.
I'm still paying it off now and will be for anther 5 years.

HOWEVER

As I am in need of a get rich quick scheme I propose I attempt the stupidist scheme you b3tan's can come up with. After all, I *really* have nothing to lose.

Buy my "get rich quick" book
for £4500, just the amount I need to get set up in my own flat coincidentally enough. It consists of a hand-written post-it saying, "sell your ass". Cheers!

oi!
That's why I asked this QOTW. Just cos you weren't smart enough to ask the b3tans, don't horn in on my parade (I'm kidding, go nuts, in fact, you want to set up an internet business together? We could sell promises).

Do you actually have to pay it all back?
That seems absolutely ridiculous to me. How can you be made to pay for something you haven't spent?

The guy plead insanity at court and ended up in a nuthouse. Curiously the court said he was my responsibilty because of his mental state, and found me liable.
Shit, or what?
