This is too good...

The other day, Sam Antar posted on YMB that "an effective fraud investigator must be persistent."

I'm here to tell you he believes it.

I was just checking my referrer logs for March to see how people are finding ASM.

I was surprised to see that in March, over 200 unique users found ASM googling "SlimVirgin." That was surprising.

But even more surprising is that nearly 400 found the site looking for "Howard Finklestein," and in what must be the product of a larger social phenomenon, exactly 20 of them were searching for "I should have married Howard Finklestein."

But here's the best part.

One user, whose IP maps to NYC, spent the first three weeks of the month arriving daily at the most random hours via the search term "Sam Antar".

I think that was Sam Antar.

Being very persistent.

Like a good fraud investigator should be.

Then a few days ago, apparently satisfied that his name appears in one of Ed Manfredonia's comments, Sammy changed tactics. Specifically, on March 22 at 5:16am, Sam returned, this time googling: "Judd Bagley sex".

And then he came back five minutes later, persistently looking for "Judd Bagley sex".

And again, ten minutes later, persisting in his search for...yep..."Judd Bagley sex".

Sam, if you want pornographic images of me, all you have to do is ask.

On March 24, Sam changed tactics a bit, arriving while searching for "Judd Bagley Jews".

Having learned that I'm about as pro-Semitic a goy as you'll meet, 30 minutes later, Sam abandoned that angle for a more philosophical one, as he found ASM while searching for "Judd Bagley truth".

I'd tell Sam he appears to suffer from a rather acute case of debilitating OCD, but could I possibly be the first?
