Job emails promising $300 usually too good to be true

Attending college can be very costly with today’s tuition rates, so many students take on part time jobs in or around campus to make supplementary income. Some students may take on an on-campus position offered through federal work study, while other students may prefer to work for the multiple businesses in and around the River Falls area. However, most of these positions pay far less than the one offered in an email sent out to me last month.
