RE: The Greatest SCAM you have never heard of.
Yes pretty much exactly my view.
However, I do remember the tax-inspector who told me this story said that any tax evasion is treated very seriously. In this case the sum would have been quite high. Also this happened about 35 years ago so $1 million back then is probably more like $5 today. Still, as I say, I felt happy for the guy. Smart fellow.
I'd feel more strongly about scumbags who con one person out of thousands. The taxman deals will billions, so I don't think they really suffered, but I know it all adds up.
Absolutely no argument from me there.
It makes me laugh to think that I spoke to this guy on a number of occasions and even had some short conversations with him and from what I remember he acted like he was rather dumb, not very intelligent. Little did I know he was a genius. Good luck to him I say - surely there is a film here somewhere lol!
Genius!
