This. I was recruited by a 3 diff people. After meeting with one of them, I turned them down due to overall shadiness and the fact that since I'd been approached by 3 people already, the market must already be getting saturated.

I have an accounting degree and background in finance so I didn't think too much of it at the time. Months later, I knew I made the right call because they were trying to recruit a girl I know who is borderline retarded, no finance background at all and if not for lucky breaks in her life, she'd have easily filed for bankruptcy herself. The fact that they would send her out to analyze people's finances and make recommendations is beyond scary to me.
