I knew this bloke who landed a mangement consultant contract as they confused him with some else and he kept his mouth shut. Ended up making a good career out of it.

Ali Dia is the guy who convinced Southampton FC manager Graeme Souness that he was the cousin of George Weah, the FIFA World Player of the Year and Ballon d'Or winner. Without apparently doing any due diligence at all Souness signed Dia and gave him a game for Southampton. Just the one game however because Dia was st and was released after 14 days.
I think Lee Nelson is the king of blagging.
He's:
1. Blagged his way onto the Man City pitch before a premier league game.
2. Blagged his way onto the England football teams plane from Luton to fly for the world cup.
3. Blagged his way onto the X factor stage.
4. Blagged his way onto Kayne West's stage at Glastonbury.
5. Blagged his way into a Fifa conference in Fifa's headquarters in zurich.

Back in 2000 I worked for a consultancy and servicing the banking industry. My boss hired a KIWI bloke with a gilt edged CV-ex Cantors, double degree law/commerce. The guy was a total delegator (as he didn't know st) and i smelled a rat. He tried to get his boss fired and get his job. This prick was being paid £900 a day in 2000 (direct). I rang his University and busted him. Complete fake CV. No degree at all. I watched with delight as he was escorted off the premises. When confronted with his CV he said 'i have never seen that document before'. I am sure he is ripping some old ladies off somewhere.
Turns out he did work at cantors(as a grunt) with no quals at all. He met a blagger and got schooled on how to bullst your way to the top.
