AS OF TODAY, BILL CAMERON CLAIMS, ON HIS WEBSITE, TO BE HIRING FREELANCE WRITERS!!

Before you decide to work for this guy, you should understand that he does NOT have the money to pay you! He readily admits he owes others thousands. If you do decide to work with him, we STRONGLY urge you to request FULL PAYMENT UP FRONT.

His contact page, which states he's hiring, is here:

Angela,

I cashed my check today at a branch of Bill's bank and didn't have any
problems.

Just so that it's in writing, Bill still owes me $375. ($425 - $50 =
$375) I hope he'll really be able to pay the rest of that by the end of
November, like he says he will.

UPDATE: December 1, 2008

The owner of METROMODE magazine / Cameron Ink, Inc., Bill Cameron, promised payment to the writers by the end of November. They did not receive it.

On December 1st, he sent an email to all the writers claiming he's planning to file for bankruptcy.

Shockingly...he's still soliciting writers on his website.
