Look If I have to spend this thread trying to prove I'm not BS'ing you guys then I'm sorry I bothered to give you some sort of warning that this could happen.
I'm sorry I even bothered as this now seems more like a witch hunt than people thinking this could ever happen to them as well.
If you want to consider this as a possibility and talk about it then do otherwise don't bother as I'm finished defending myself.
I'm sorry you think it's a witch hunt. The fact is that we've heard this same story before, exact in nearly every detail, and it turned out to be completely unsubstantiated. If you really wanted to warn people that this was really going on, then you could have provided some substantiation, such as a news story from the Vancouver Sun or some other semi-reliable news source.
And if your friend claimed that this happened and did NOT call the press, then you should doubt every word of the story.
