Great story, but the guy seems like a total asshole, charming or not.

Really fascinating story. It's worth taking the time to read the article.

That article was absolutely riveting. The screenwriter in me (ugh) wants the rights.

You don't see too many old-style grifters these days.

I haven't read the story, does it really say that because he got free tuition he was thereby able to "extend his student visa, buying time for $1.3M in con jobs with various wealthy marks, and getting the University stripped of its accreditation in the process.? That's quite a con. Mamet should write a movie about him.
