Default Hooper Deceptive Business Practices Case (Pennsylvania)

In case anyone remembers the Roger Hooper case I posted about last year involving a guy who is currently awaiting trial in Pennsylvania for deceptive business practices involving forged signatures and tampered wax packs:

His son just had his day in court for alledgedly peddling resealed wax:

It would be interesting to view the detailed evidence on this case. One would think it would be quite hard to determine if a wax pack has actually been tampered with, especially if the criminal is well informed… What are the tell signs, if any?

Never collected wax packs before, so I claim ignorance on this subject.

Default I hope junior . . .

had to agree to testify against the old man to get away with this tap on the wrist (can't even call it a slap).

I think the bad economy is breeding more fraudulent activity. It seems like more threads on this board are about fraud than ever before, and it's a sign of the times. Just have to be vigilant and shut these guys down.
