Here is the email I received in reply and the "script" I was sent:
Hi Steve !!!
let's do something... do you have skype ? my user is: maxgoldenberg. You can reach me there
We need to cover 2 roles: voice over (in american english) and the reviewer. It's a simple job (the review): check the text consistency, the grammar and that's it. We can pay 0.50 usd per text (you can review 1 text per minute) and 1 usd per voice over (you can record 1 script in 2 minutes)
If you have time, you can earn good money from this (we have almost 20 reviewers working right now)
What do you think about it? I'm sending attachted a script.
I hope we can work together
Max

"How to be stealthy...in 3 steps
Synopsis
There are times when we need to be extremely careful in not making noise. Here you will find some suggestions you will need to take into account, should you be in that situation.
You will need
A pair of trainers
Tight clothes
Bravery
Nerves of steel
Getting Started
Before starting, make yourself aware that being stealthy is a very complex task. Anything can happen: wind, some stuffs on the floor and the like.
Don’t forget
To do slow movements. Time is not important, you only have to focus in your movements.
Step 1
If there is some light, have a look around. See if there are things on the floor or furniture you have to avoid.
Warning
If there is not light, you have to be extremely careful when walking. The light of the mobile phone may result useful.
Step 2
Take short and easy steps until you get to the place you have to reach.
Tip
Tennis are perfect for these situations in which you have to avoid all noise.
Step 3
Avoid handling doors. The great number of them are absolutely noisy. Once you did what you had to, remember all the movements you did for reaching that place since you have to return.
Fun Fact
According to past research, stealthy people develop a fantastic sense of perception. This is great if you are planning to be a police officer!"
Here is my edited version (it took 30 minutes to make the corrections and I did offer to do this one for free, but I won't do any more for 50 cents or even five (or five hundred) dollars!

This is not how police officers usually work, is it?.
Perhaps I should have WAITED TO BE SENT A SCRIPT REGARDING AIRPORT SECURITY SCREENING...
