"Low Moral Character"
My journey as a Fraud

As I sat in my jail cell contemplating a way I was going to explain to my kids how I thought so little of myself and them that these were the decisions I made that landed me here. I wondered why I thought my arrogance and ego were enough to fool everybody...

How about, "Failing Grades: The PSA Story" ?

In my opinion, a feature length video documentary that can be viewed on a major streaming outlet (ie Netflix or Amazon Prime, etc.) would make a greater impact than a book.

In lieu of that how about a video of Nat Turner?

35 minute mark or so, scandal discussion. Warning you may be disappointed.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.


What a lying sack of.... to say that grading standards haven't changed and it's all newbies sending in cards complaining about grades is complete BS. It's on every forum, experienced submitters are getting the shaft. Especially on high dollar cards.

"Won't Get Fooled Again" would actually be a perfect title, whether it's a Book, Movie, TV Documentary or otherwise.

+1 ... standards have changed unless it's a T206 Wags....

And back to the subject a little bit. How can anyone in the world think that PWCC having their bidders be private is anything but a cover for shills? Hopefully the FBI will make all the fraudsters pay, whomever they are.
