EDIT: If this is frowned upon don't ban me. Dont know if the youtube link is allowed but in case people were unfamiliar with the man.

Any of you remember the amazing infomercials that the genius conceptual comedian, ala Andy Kaufman, Don Lapre did?

Sad life, but I truely loved those infomercials.

Anyone ever do it? How did it work?

Here is a vid of the man himself.

      For those of you who may be unaware....

      October 2011

      (CBS) Authorities say TV pitchman Don Lapre was found dead after an apparent suicide in an Arizona jail cell on Sunday morning. Officials say they are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding his death. It was only a few days before his $52 million fraud trial was set to begin.

      The 47-year-old had been charged with 41 counts of conspiracy, mail fraud, wire fraud and promotional money laundering with his company, "The Greatest Vitamin in the World."

    I miss Don. He learned that he could make more money teaching people how to make money. Lesson for a lot of us in that.

    Can someone explain me what exactly he did to be charged of fraud? (I don't live in the US so...) - from what I understand his "tiny classified ads" were basically just encouraging other people to sell his worthless products, is that right?

    Cheers,
    Rob
