Re: Forensic/Cyber Crime Investigator

[Mark Teicher <mht3 () earthlink net>]

According to "one of the first CYBERSPACE private investigators", he says he can do a background check on a person in 5 
minutes flat.  So I guess part of being a "CYBERSPACE private investigator" is that one has to know how to b.s. their 
clients and always say your buddies work for three letter agencies and not persons who sell fake "authentic" badges and 
lighters that are mini-camera, but look like a zippo
