I found a link to this site on another site and I am still reading throug it. It is a true story and I highly recommend you read it. It is great but long. You won't hear about this anywhere else.

i almost got away with ripping my bank off. but then when they caught onto me, i tried to make out it was all a jolly jape. i even got on the telly, but i still had to give the money back in the end. so,........maybe you could send me a couple of bucks via paypal. that would be nice.

kthnxbye

LOL, I do think that was a pretty lame thing to slap into it one page
from the end, but I did enjoy the story. Not quite up to the standards
of Dave Gorman's comedy adventures but good nonetheless :smile:

Yeh that paypal bit was a bit lame but a realy good read and not many people can beat Dave Gorman especially where 4 people (I think or it may have been 2 women I know there were 2 women but Im not sure about there being 2 blokes) changes there names by Depol to Dave Gorman for his show.

You do know there was another page after the paypal thing. It did have a real ending. A damn good one too. The paypal thing was more for a joke.

Taking that it happened in 1994 and he claims to have written the original story in '94. It would be floating around as long as the windowed world wide web has existed.

the last page must be online somewhere else.

[edit] do a google search for "Most reporters had told me to call again with updates" [/edit]

The last page is on that site, its just that you need to go past a
paypal request page first of all. The story is (or at least seemed to
be) complete.

It's a fair enough read. Nice story, decently written and all. Good, or something.
