I received this ‘proposal’ (»Transform Your Research into a Best-Selling Book«):

Dear Dr. Helmut Schütz,
- I am ████████████, Editorial assistant from UK based publishing company, contacting you with the reference from our editorial department. Basing on your outstanding contribution to the scientific community, we would like to write a book for you.
  Researchers like you are adding so much value to the scientific community, yet you are not getting enough exposure. No matter how many papers you publish in famous journals, you will be still unknown to common people. To solve this problem, we came up with this unique solution.
  With our book writing service, we will write your research contributions in common man’s language. We will also include all your published papers into this book in a way that a common man can understand it. And then, we will publish your book with our publishing group. Before, publication, we will send the draft to you for scientific accuracy, once you approve our draft, we then proceed for publication. You will get all the rights of your book, and all the sales generated from your book will be credited to you.
  Your book will then be listed on famous websites like Amazon, eBay, Goodreads, and many other popular book websites. As a result, you will get good credit and people will recognize your hard work and your scientific contributions.
  Last but not least, after the publication of your book, it will be published in Google News, Yahoo, and other major news channels. What more can you ask for?
  All we need is your book writing contract, and you will get all the rights for your book.
  Will be waiting to hear from you.
Best Regards,
████████████ | Editorial Assistant
