A fascinating SF Weekly look at Rebecca and Terry Solomon's duping of Bay Area investors for $20 million. Hint #1 to investors: Real estate tax records can tell you a lot, if they're renting a $20k/month house, consider carefully that two million dollar check.
But I guess that's why the Nigerian 419 scammers are still at it after how many years of people in my circles giggling over the idiocy of people who fall for them.
