    After all of this being said, I tried to google search this "job listing" and it doesn't even return a company name.

    does this thing even exist? Or is it a joke?

    I'm constantly amazed by the people who think writers write just for the fun of it. As if we don't have families to feed, mortgages to pay and creditors chasing our asses.

    Unfrosted apple cinnamon. When I spit it up, I won't feel I've wasted anything.

    Agreed. Something like this cheapens every other job ad advertised on here. And I'd also venture that some SEs may think twice about posting a job on here because of that.

    I get the feeling I'll need to send them my bank account number and a little "good faith money" before they can get me anything.

    I can see it all now.

    I don't think so, Hank. We do our best to keep these listings on the freelance side, so there's no confusion with the paying gigs on the main jobs board. The marketplace then settles it for us -- anyone can read these threads and separate the half-baked from the fully baked.
