What an entertaining evening! The performance was laugh-out-loud funny (the cat pictures especially). JCC is a nice venue and a change from some of the small black-box theaters in the city.Written on Mar 20 2009

Three of us left at the intermission. I thought Dean Cameron's part of the script deteriorated into absolute silliness and little real humor. The three parts of the scammers were beautifully acted but I did not see any reason for having this go on longer than 45 minutes. The material was quickly exhausted and became an exercise in stupidity by the white man.Written on Mar 20 2009

These guys are unbelievably wacky! I can't believe the ballsy chutzpah of Dean Cameron to try and almost succeed in scamming the scammers!Written on Mar 20 2009
I'd have to agree with the previous reviewer when she says the second act was a bit awkward but, all in all, this was a primo performance well worth the time and money. Ole!!!

My 18-year old daughter and I agree that this was a lot of fun. It sounds like the show grows and changes as Mr. Cameron's interactions with the spamer in question continues, which adds a fresh quality to the show. The experience clocked in at a little under 2 hours, including the 15 minute intermission. If I was the director, I would omit the intermission and just combine the first act with the very short and "cloogy" second act (Mr. Cameron's word), but since the real director (foolishly) didn't ask me, it ends up being longer in an awkward way. The box office assigned us seats towards the back, but the venue is small enough that the seats were okay. Parking in the Center's garage ended up costing us only $5, so this ended up being a fun and reasonably priced evening out. Oh, one last thought, Mr. Cameron still occasionally sends things to the spamer and solicits things to send them from the audience. Thus, if you have some small "white elephant" kind of item that might make a spammer shake his head in wonder, bring it along and give it to Mr. Cameron at the end of the presentation for delivery to Nigeria!Written on Mar 20 2009

Description
“Please help me! I am the beneficiary to a fortune of 30 million dollars!!!” You’ve probably seen a similar message in your inbox, and you’ve probably deleted it immediately. Actor Dean Cameron didn’t. Instead, he began corresponding with an email con man, posing as a lonely millionaire from Florida. Cameron weaves his experience into a hilarious multimedia comedy about a relationship built on misunderstanding, desperation and deception. Victor Isaac costars as the bewildered Nigerian scammer.
