Feel for the kid who lost his 300k likes FB page. That's not an insignificant achievement, and to lose it to a scammer is terrible.

Kudos to deadspin, that's an interesting read. Sucks for that kid that got scammed, but I dunno why he didn't see through the scam sooner.

The best part is that it keeps getting weirder. Connections to condescending wonka, stolen Twitter accounts, solen fb pages, law suits, threats, and screenshots galore...it just keeps on giving. How ESPN hired this myth wo ever actually asking to meet is beyond me.

Appears that "Ben" got his FB NBA Memes page back and Sarah is responding to the story on twitter.

My guess is that Prasad is really "Sarah Phillips" and paid a hot Oregon St. coed to be the face of the scam.

I lost interest in the Deadspin story about a third of the way.

I found the whole concept of buying Twitter accounts interesting and a bit of an eye opener.
