This takes a while to read through, but it is quite funny and interesting and IMO quite worth the time...

I loved the documentation of the entire process. I particularly liked the voluntary covert operatives that were on site.

I can't personally vouch for the integrity of the story, but in any case, I think serves as a good example to everyone that we should be careful about how we transact our business over the internet.

I'm not sure that anyone would have written that much stuff, and fabricated an enire 8 (or was it 9) page forum topic on the subject. But you never know. I guess it's gonna go down as one of those urban myths.

Very amusing - I sat and read the whole thing, it was hilarious. Possibly the best story I've heard in a long time. Thanks for posting that DM
