CON Man......real GOOD Con man......scary good CON MAN.

[Sourdough]

Wow, I lucked out this time, but it was just luck. I like to think that at my age I have some degree of skill at detecting a con, I like to think I can tell if something is a total fabrication, a lie, a con.

This guy was so good he spent two day ordering FBI agents around, telling them what to do. He has con many business, police officers & departments, and many Innocent people who fall for his con.

He tried to buy some pistols from me at the last gun show Aug. 7'th & 8'th he was in full dress military uniform, telling city security officers what to do at the show for security, he seemed to be in charge. He told me he had just got back from Afghanistan, that he was a military ploice officer, rank: Captain.

He was buying lots of firearms and ammo with checks, which it turns out were bogus checks. He is a convicted felon, in possession of handguns. He kept buying firearms and stacking them up in a pile behind the security table. He bought a lot of firearms.

He was/is the best I have ever encountered. He is wanted all over America, and Alaska just issued a $100,000.00 arrest warrant for him. http://www.ktva.com/oldlocal/ci_15907788?source=rss

Yep, you sure did ! Thanks for the link

[Justin Case]

Thats Crazy,,,, why dont Alaska Police have access to NCIC ?? That should be an automatic check when they run a name ? I think the Officer that had contact with him failed in not requesting a check through NCIC,,,

Actually which is of the most importance? The thief, or that SD did an actual by golly gee whizz cut and past?

When I started the thread, I was thinking about how hard, no impossible to tell the "Con" from the person desperately needing help, in a SHTF event and in the aftermath of TSHTF event. Remember the cons in the movie "The BOOK" with the road block and the woman chained down, begging, "Help Me, Please Help Me".

Oh, yeah. Look at that waistline. Clearly military SF material there.

About 20 years ago, a kid in his early 20's managed to get himself in a pool full of crap when he conned dozens of people in town.

Earlier, I had represented him regarding a "misunderstanding" over a bad check he had written for a private used car sale.

Soon after that, the guy rented a small store in town, and quickly stocked it with everything from cigarettes and groceries to cheap watches and small electronics. His checks to suppliers started bouncing in days.

The police went to his store and discovered that he had emptied the place of everything of any value. When he learned that the law was looking for him, he called one of the police detectives, claiming to be me, and threatened him with legal action.

He didn't know that the cop he was speaking to was one of my best friends.

He got a 3 - 5 sentence on over 30 counts of fraud and larceny by check.

Hey SD nice cut and paste.

What was that thread about impersonating Military. See its not so bad.

Ken, sort of gives a different meaning to "Special" forces.

There are so many things wrong on so many levels that it makes me wonder much more about the LE and other people gullible enough to buy this moron's jive. Just for starters...are they blind?

[Sourdough]

I think there is a tendency to want to honor the uniform. The only thing that saved me is I have a strict NO Checks policy. Yes, he is fat, but he sure could talk.

[BENESSE]

It takes all kind.
Just because someone wears a uniform doesn't guarantee sound character. We've seen that play out over and over again and yet people fall for it more often than not. And the criminals know it too. Maybe I've just become too jaded living where I do and hearing about someone or other impersonating a police officer, a fire fighter or a sheriff.

[BENESSE]

Stand back everybody...looks like Ken's coming around!!!

Just to cheer you up a little bit SD, look at it this way. Nowadays a lot of people brag that they have some sort of distant relative who know Jesse James (the original) and people go wow. You story is much better.

I'd much rather know his ex-wife.

Sorry Ken, but that looks fake. Her breast don't line up and no hmmm center points. ( not sure what i can say here) I admit first thing I looked at. Her right arm is... don't what it is, but I am glad it's not mine and doesn't line up with her shoulder, and her face looks like that of a guy with the hair of Cohan the barbarian. It also looks like she is p'ing, but that could be me. A photoshop masterpiece (not). A handsome fellow like yourself can do better than that.

So, the next time you go on one of those dating site (not that you need it) and you see a picture of somebody you are interested in, maybe you should let me look at it first before you go any further. LOL

UPDATE: This is not valid anymore, he changed the picture without notifying me in a timely manner. Darned.

[rudyumans]

You changed the picture !!!! besides I meant the original Jesse James
