James Deakin (and others) got scammed by the same guy

[_Cathy_]

OT really is there a disease like that? a graver version of malingering.
BTT just as we pat ourselves in the back for doing what a good Samaritan does we're in a receiving end of a scam. that's why I hated estafadors and thieves more than... hmmm...bank robbers? not really. ☺

Yes there is such a disease. Even scarier is munchausen by proxy.

I actually think he isnt a scammer. I think he has a hidden camera and is making a documentary hehe.

Or he has loose screws.

I agree. It doesn't seem like he's after money.
