OFFERED for PUBLICATION
"Make a million dollars working from home!" "Buy real estate with no down payment!" "Call now and don't miss this opportunity to join the ranks of the independently wealthy!" Whether via internet, late-night cable TV, or in the classified sections of our favorite alternative weekly, we have all been besieged - and maybe tempted - by these endless entreaties promising instant wealth. In Scam America, author Harmon Leon acts in defiance of our collective better judgment, and follows up on a number of familiar come-ons. In the gonzo style of Hunter S. Thompson, Mr. Leon, author of The Harmon Chronicles and winner of an Independent Publishing Award, suspends our collective better judgment and flings himself headlong into such misguided adventures as The Great Nigerian Email Scam, The Chernobyl Bride Scam, and The Male Model Scam - following each one as far as it can go. Hilarity - and a healthy dose of pathos - ensue. [proposal, full manuscript available] ScamAmerica.doc - printable
