Default Re: To Catch a Predator

I saw a different one on MSNBC today that might be a really old show, not sure.

It was called To Catch a Con-Man and it has Chris Hansen flying to London to meet up with some of those Nigerian e-mail scam type dudes ("Give me $10k to help me out in my time of need and I will give you 20% of my net-worth, or $2-million").

Hansen strings them along and keeps making up reasons he can't pay them the money yet...meet me here in 1 hour...blah blah blah...and then eventually gives them the news, "Actually, I'm Chris Hansen from an American television program called Dateline NBC."


Before this show I didn't even know that people actually fell for those things and have actually lost money.

Yet the guy walked free because they were in a foreign country in didn't have police back-up. I felt I wasted an hour of my life.

In the Predator shows, I love the guys who say, "I need to talk with my lawyer first" and the start to blurt out everything starting to be "careful" at first, but then everything spills out.
