Suspect allegedly claimed to be adviser or ambassador to made-up places such as ‘Seborga’ or ‘Westarctica’
This was obviously a bad thing he did because he was taking people’s money on the premise that they would be able to get work in a foreign country, but at a certain level you have to be impressed by the sheer audacity of the scam!
Maybe they make more sense in whatever the local language is, although Westarctica seems pretty blatant. Under the right circumstances I probably wouldn’t question it if someone told me Seborga was a province in Sokovia or something like that. I wouldn’t think I could get a job there, though.
I always say most people are fucking morons, and unfortunately, it’s the truth. Obviously, in some cases, potentially like this, it’s not somebody’s fault, maybe from lack of education, but the reality is still true. People are fucking not smart.

I propose we make him a minister of foreign things in my micronation
He will go down in history next to the man who tried to sell the Eiffel Tower.
Like those are very fake sounding names, I am continually surprised by how easily tricked some people are.
