Another one bites the dust, this time after falsely claiming to be an attorney, a graduate of Cambridge (almost right; the university took back the B.A. it issued after the person violated their ethics standards), and many more. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A2789-2002Jan5.html Rich Douglas
You really have to wonder when employers are going to wake up and check the resumes of potential employees, especially something as important as General Counsel. Bruce
The most amusing part was that it turned out this fake lawyer's law office, as listed in Martindale-Hubbel, was a Mailboxes Etc. box. So clearly M-H doesn't do any checking either. I wonder if there would be a market for a book called "Who's Really Who" -- a biographical dictionary where all the entries had been checked out.
