They didn't get "caught", but only because they were dumb enough to brag up their efforts a bit, and an honest man warned them he would turn them in, so they never followed through. Randy and I both know who they were...

Another of the several reasons I decided to leave the early 911 world in my wake. No regrets that my genuine 911S got shipped off to a friend in Istanbul.
I have zero desire to own something others want badly enough to counterfeit one..
