Is this a case of the old saying, "If it sounds too good to be true, it is." ? I'm so new to online ads, I'm feeling so cautious I'm almost paranoid. Thank you for the cautionary tale.

I just got an e-mail from a guy who wants me to put seven paragraphs on seven older posts I've written that advertise "travel deals". He claims he will pay me $80 for all seven paragraphs, but the catch is "the links must be on your pages permanently". $80 friggen bucks for links that stay on my blog forever? Oh...I don't think so!
