<human>: So today I received a letter from a company called Vector Markteting offering me pretty nice pay ($17/hr) and free training. At first I thought, this sounds to good to be true. I recently turned down a job offer because I didn't feel myself to be qualified, but here was something out of the blue. I searched it on google, and one of the top results was a forum post warning people against it. It turns out that Vector Marketing is one of those home salesman jobs where you sell items (in this case Cutco knives) to people, and you have to buy the knives yourself. So I'm glad I didn't get suckered into some sort of scheme like that.

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Got a job offer in the mail, turns out it's some sort of home selling scheme that you have to buy the materials. What are your stories of getting scammed or getting away?
