Cause I had to edit my post and put a link in, as no one seemed to know what I was talking about, even though the story was on the main page. So naturally I had to tease them about it.

Just stumbled across the 20\20 vid and saw this post here at subsim.

Was glad to see that it was Shipley who busted him.

That guy needs to be prosecuted for not only his scams but his use of the US armed forces for personal profit. Wasn't too bright though. It's not like there are 20,000 Navy Seals. What an idiot.

We call them recces over here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_A...Special_Forces You could spot them a mile away.. maybe the public is generally stupid. My elder second cousin was one, he was my Matric maths teacher as well as my Applied Maths lecturer (Professor) at Uni, sometime later. I always knew something wasn't right with him.. and we had a long chat at uni one day... I think that made a difference for him. I still respect his vow of silence ??

There is an excellent website out there that keeps track of and exposes fakes:

Funny but that statement made me think of defense contractors instantly.
