Unsolved Mysteries back on TV on Spike

[egrzeszczyk]

I was the victim of the British con man, Jonathan Kern who was featured in an Unsolved Mysteries episode. Kern was impersonating the former British Formula One race car driver, Jonathan Palmer. Thanks to all the leads that the episode brought in, enough publicity was generated that Kern was no longer able to impersonate Palmer. However, since the book I wrote about my experience with Kern, "I Fell in Love with a Con Man", was published, I have received numerous emails from people informing me that Kern is presently living in London, England and is contining to con people. One of his latest scams is running a bogus on-line interior design business: ShellShock Designs. He lures business investors and partners, keeping the money for his personal use. This is the third on-line interior design business he's started in three years. As soon as the creditors come knocking, he folds the business and starts another one.

I hope that airing the Unsolved Mysteries episode again on Spike will make more people aware of Kern and prevent him from conning additional people.
