Pick up artists often sell useless bootcamps, scamming hopeful incels out of thousands of dollars and putting them at risk of macing, arrest, and harassment allegations.  The first popular PUA book was written by [[Ross Jeffries]] and is called [[How to Get the Women You Desire into Bed]]..  There is a [[disclaimer]] on the first few pages warning that the contents could easily get one arrested if acted out fully.
