ILLINOIS MAN CAUGHT IN MOVIE EXTRA SCAM

July 25, 2007--I heard this on my local morning radio show and thought it was pretty interesting and PITIFUL at the same time. Apparently, some guy read an article in the newspaper (St.Louis Post-Dispatch) wanting movie extras for the sequel to Into The Blue. Basically he was to give $600 wired to the Movie Commission and fly to Canada for the shooting...Why would they shoot an ocean/beach movie in the cold Canadian water? What's worse is this guy quit his job for this. Of course when he got to Canada, no one was there....For the full article go HERE.
