The notorious Barefoot Bandit has been caught in the Bahamas, reports the Associated Press. The fugitive, whose real name is Colton Harris-Moore, was arrested Sunday morning on northern Eleuthera island in the Bahamas. Moore, 19, who has allegedly stolen cars, boats and planes, apparently crash landed a plane onto Great Abaco Island last week. The Barefoot Bandit has attracted a cult following and there is talk that he may be the subject of a feature film. Below, you can see a news conference regarding the arrest.

    The barefoot bandit isn't the only one taking things that aren't his, Amway has ripped off millions of people for several decades, to the tune of 10s of billions of dollars.

    Read about it on this website: http://thenetprofitgroup.yolasite.com and forward the information to everyone you know, so they don't get scammed.

    Amway is a scam, and here's why: Amway pays out as little money as they can get away with, so they support the higher level IBOs ripping off their downline via the tool scam.

    As a result, about 99% of IBOs operate at a net loss, while the top 1% make several TIMES more from their Amway tool scam than from the Amway products. This was made illegal in the UK in 2008, but our FTC is unable to pull their heads out of their butts to stop it here.
