Con Man Posing As Homeless Man Makes $50,000/year
Back in November, our ICY HEARTS were briefly thawed by the story of a New York cop who saw a homeless man sitting barefoot in Times Square, and spent $75 to buy him a brand new pair of shoes. And a photo of the scene got 618,000 Facebook likes.
--About two weeks later, our enthusiasm waned after reporters caught up with the homeless guy, 54-year-old Jeffrey Hillman, and he said he felt EXPLOITED, because he didn't get a DIME from all the media attention the story was getting.
--And now, our enthusiasm is GONE and our hearts are back to being icy and black.
--On Sunday, a few "New York Post" reporters followed Jeffrey after he left Times Square . . . and watched him head right back to an apartment. He was counting a huge stack of bills as he walked up.
--When they confronted him, he admitted he ISN'T homeless. He's just a con man who poses as a homeless guy . . . and makes HUNDREDS a day doing it. At maybe $250 a day, 200 days a year, that makes it a $50,000-a-year, TAX-FREE job.
--And as for the shoes he got from the cop . . . Jeffrey admitted he owns at least 30 pairs of shoes and boots.
Too Much? A Woman Gets Revenge On Her Cheating Husband With A Giant Billboard
If you find out your husband's cheating on you, there are two ways you can react. You can curl up into a ball, and cry about how your life is ruined . . . or you can figure out the best way to PUBLICLY HUMILIATE HIM.
--A woman named Jennifer in Greensboro, North Carolina just went with Option B.
--She suspected her husband was cheating, and thanks to a GPS tracker, she was able to take photos of him in the act with a woman named Jessica.
--And her response was . . . to use their joint investment account to BUY A GIANT BILLBOARD, and call him out.
--The billboard says, quote, "Michael. GPS tracker, $250. Nikon Camera with zoom lens, $1,600. Catching my LYING HUSBAND and buying this billboard with our investment account, priceless. Tell Jessica you're moving in! Jennifer."
--Sure, the MasterCard "Priceless" thing has been played out for YEARS . . . but it's still some high quality revenge. There's no word how much the billboard cost.
