When federal agents raided her home in Virginia Beach, Va., they found evidence everywhere, prosecutors said: nearly $1 million in counterfeit coupons scattered around the house and more than 13,000 coupon designs on her computer, the material for “Frankenstein” coupons that scammed people around the country.
Ms. Talens, 41, was sentenced to 12 years in prison on Tuesday for operating what prosecutors called “one of the largest coupon fraud schemes” in U.S. history, saying it cost retailers and manufacturers more than $31 million in losses.

so to sum up the scam:
they pay you 10k through their credit card. You then take a portion of that, say 5k and write a cheque to their "consultant", your money clears, and they then put a reversal on the credit card payment and you're out 5k.
