Default Any writers out there?

There is a family in Pennsylvania having a contest in which you can buy their house for $100.

All you need to do is write a story and send it to them along with $100.

If they pick your story you win their house.

I don't have a link but I will search and try to post it.

I caught it on the news last night.

Dear Pennsylvania family,
Give me your house, or die!
The end.


So, when do I get to move in?

I have to try that scam. I can already see my rejection letter.

Dear aspiring writer,

Your story sucked. I will keep your $100.

Good day.

They said the family was frustrated throughout the selling process so they went this path.

Cant find a link online though.

Unless only 5 people enter the contest, then you are screwed.
