 This happened nearby a month or two ago but I never posted, searched MOH and found nothing on it so I figured I would finally get off my butt and post.

When it first happened my first thought was "ya know, things like that never happen to me"

I also remember hearing the story of finding the money, and then later hearing about them being found out. To be honest, if I had seen a picture of them before I found out it was fake, I probably wouldn't have doubted them, because these guys look like criminals straight out of a disney movie.

Well, we don't have pop-up blockers at work, so it's not like I could do anything about it. But 5 minutes later, I was still getting ads coming up out of nowhere.
