I get a call from a guy who claims he was referred to me by someone in the biz I highly respect. I call him back and he is in a Motel 6 in Bessemer, Alabama, he is quick to explain that this is because he is under care at University Hospital and this was the only close hotel. He goes on to explain that he is a multi-millionaire who inherited a fortune and several companies which he named. He went on to drop my friends real name as though they were long time pals. Anyway he is adamant that he wants to finance an adult video, custom shot to his specifications, it’s his fantasy and he is rich and he can afford it. I am skeptical but he talks a good game and sounds harmless.
He is adamant that his star be a black girl, a new one who will do white guys and anal and a small gangbang. he wants tro shoot 12 2 hour videos of just this girl and he is willing to pay her 2500.00 to talk to her on the phone, another 7500.00 when he meets her in person and 2500.00 per video for a total of 40,000. he is going to pay me 60,000 to shoot them.
I figure OK #1 if he is a friend of the guy he claims to be, this is way too much money to throw at something that likely won’t even get distribution but he doesn’t care, it’s his fantasy. So I have 3 sistahs call him, meantime I call our mutual friend who assures me he doesn’t know the guy but he gave him my number just in case he was real, which BTW is fine with me.
Ok now the guy is sold on one of the girls, he loves her. He claims to be flying to Atlanta on saturday and we will start shooting on Monday. It is here that I expect him to ask my bank account number or some such, cuz I am reading con all over this. Nope he claims to be sending me a Federal Express with an advance payment of a 2500.00 cashiers check.
So I am thinking hmmm….could this be real?
Well no Federal Express arrives and I haven’t heard another word from him. Go figure…I am still wondering what he got out of this. Anyone got any ideas? He claimed his name was Lynn Crumpton but that was not the name he was registered under at the Motel 6. Hey it IS a great story.
Thats all for now, stay tuned!
