My second month of being an Avon rep, just trying to make a few extra bucks since I lost my job. I get this wonderful "hit" from my Avon website from a potential new customer. I respond which is then followed by an email that reads as follows...

Do let me know the total cost plust the necessary tax I am to pay on it. I would need to know the total of all the products I requested and also the name and address you want the payment sent to and also a phone number I can reach you on. After you send me this information I would instruct my sponsors to send you the payment which would be in form of money orders or certified check which you can cash instantly at your bank.
