I've had a job that I felt bad about - they bought old, non-collectible debt for pennies on the dollar and called and sort of tricked people into making payments on old debts to "renew" the debt so that they could legally collect on it. They did it under the guise of "here's a chance to build your credit!" but I doubt the most people who signed up realized they legally didn't have to pay.
I got paid all of $50k to be a financial analyst there. I was young and straight of out school with a shit job economy and needed to pay rent and buy food. I also took comfort in working there for a year and a half doing virtually zero work.
