I think I met this fugitive on-line, under an assumed name… the G-men should be on the lookout for a “Joe Blow”.

If I can run a scam where I make $600 million, and if caught I only stand to lose $43.7 million, I will run that scam. Hell, I’ll do it for a $1 million profit margin.

(Goldman Sachs-- you can contact me through my user ID here, thanks.)

Can you plan that sort of scam? If so, they might actually be interested.

Spare us a thought when you’re loafing on your Caribbean island.
