They called me an hour ago. The woman said her name is Peda Ope and that she works for Amazon. She said they are looking for "associates" (not affiliates). I asked the difference. She gave me some circular vague explanation that didn't make sense. She said that for a nominal fee (i.e. 499/599) they would set up a web site for me that handled everything I needed to earn commissions representing Amazon products. The conversation went on for about 20 minutes where she kept trying to get me to give her a credit card number. I wouldn't do it. I asked for a call-back number where they could verify who she is. She gave me 877-754-5167. When I called that number a woman answered and said that I had reached Amazon Web Designs. I asked if she worked for Amazon. She said yes. So I called Amazon. The Customer Service representative was not aware of this 'offer' from Amazon, didn't recognize Peda, didn't recognize the phone numbers and took a report for their Investigations group. Guess I will hear something from Amazon tomorrow...
