This TRUE STORY will give you a glimpse into the rough diamond scammers way of life. It will show you how greed and stupidity are a very bad combination. This book chronicles my involvement in a diamond buying deal that was totally bogus and a scam. You will see the players here and see the story they were told and how they took it "hook, line and sinker". This book again stresses that if you are going to deal in any item you need to at least have a basic idea of what the market is and how you will make money.The two investors had no clue about how the rough diamond business works or how to make money with the rough once they had it. They were relying on the man that turned out to be a con man and not a very smart one at that. But he was smart enough to make some money but not the $200,000 he thought he would.This book would make a great movie and I may even consider having that done at some point. It is funny in places and sad in others. That people can be so gullible is beyond me and it lets you wonder is the saying "there is a sucker born every minute" is not more true than anyone would think.The conman in the book called me after I got back from the trip and heard about the book and told me he had a lawyer in New York that would sue me for slander. Well as I told him, the truth will set him free and what he did was an out and out con game. I have heard no more from him on that idea.If you want to see human greed and ignorance and stupidity in action, then this book is for you.Gregg
