Fake Engineer Tries To Get Lighter Sentence... By Faking References
from the there's-dumb-and-then-there's... dept
Well, here's a fun one. A guy who was found guilty of faking his credentials to get a job as a maintenance engineer for the airline Qantas tried to get a lighter sentence by submitted four sterling references. But... it turns out that those references were faked as well (found via the Raw Feed). The guy didn't even do a particularly convincing job faking the references either. All four were formatted the same way and signed by the same hand, and one was from the president of a sports organization... that didn't even exist. You would think, in the age of the internet that people would assume that making up entire organizations wouldn't be particularly effective.

Hey, organizations can be made up despite the internet. Wasn't an organization created not too long ago to free hostages from somewhere?

This guy should walk around with Truck Nutz slung on a gold chain around his neck.

janitor aka maintenance engineer
Jail time for a job as a janitor? Fake doctors don't even go to jail (that I can recall, and there have been a few).
