The victims were individuals who previously lost money to firms masquerading as timeshare resale businesses, according to court records. These victims were approached by callers from Clarke's operation — DeltaCorp and G. William Clarke, P.A. — and told they could get restitution checks from the Florida Attorney General's Office, in exchange for hundreds of dollars in fees payable to Clarke's companies.

Excellent.

We had a few Orlando cops on a panel that were explaining what they do to find these people.

It was just two of them and they were very interesting. It's dangerous work believe it or not. There is a lot of money behind these scams and the operators don't want to lose.

Nice to hear the good guys win every once in a while.
