A) READING COMPREHENSHION

Get Rich or Get Conned?PHILADELPHIA- Would you like to make thousand of dollars a month without working? Then Greg

Cheney wants to talk to you. You can see Greg on television every day. He is always selling

something. Now he has a new product. He calls it the "greatest diet pill in the world." However,

the "greatest diet pill" is really the "biggest 1scam " in the world. "This is the easiest way in the

world to make a fortune," says Cheney in his TV commercial. "If you get 20 people to try this

product, we will send you a thousand dollars," the con artist promises. And some people believe

him. "It sounded so good," says Kelly Eagan. "I signed up the same day.”

The 2 rip-off works like this. Cheney isn't really selling diet pills. He is selling Web sites that

advertise diet pills. You buy a Web site. Then you wait for people to go to the Web site and buy the

diet pills. However, the numbers don't work. The diet pills cost $39.95 a bottle. Twenty bottles costabout $800. How can Cheney pay the seller $1,000 to make $800? The answer is that he can't.

Cheney sells the Web sites for $35. But most people pay much more than that. After you sign up,

he sells you a lot more things. Cheney says the extra things bring more customers to the Web

sites. However, Kelly Eagan paid him $5,175 and only one person visited her site.

Cheney has a list of people who have made a lot of money. He says that he sends out checks

every week-$3,500, $5,600, even $22,782. But even some people on the list have lost money. For

example, Susan Kauffman is on the moneymaker list. She says she spent $5,000 and sold about 23bottles of diet pills. Igor Spilsak is on the list, too . He paid $2,000 and sold six bottles of diet pills.

However, in the commercial he says, "This is the easiest thing I've ever done and I'm making more

than $100 an hour!' Why did he lie? Cheney paid him $600 to be in the commercial.

Cheney insists that you can make money if you work hard and don't quit. However, it seems that

only one person is getting rich quick and that's Greg Cheney.*1scam : a fraudulent business 2 rip off : stealing
