AOL Prepares To Dig For Gold At Bay State Home
Property Owned By Spammer's Parents

WASHINGTON --

AOL is preparing to dig for buried gold and platinum on property in Massachusetts
owned by the parents of a man it sued for sending millions of unwanted spam e-mails
to its customers.

AOL said Tuesday it intends to search for gold and platinum bars the company believes
are hidden near the home of Davis Wolfgang Hawke's parents on two acres in Medfield, Mass.
The family said it will fight in court to oppose AOL's plans.

AOL won a $12.8 million judgment last year in U.S. District Court in Virginia against
Hawke but has been unable to contact Hawke to collect any of the money he was ordered
to pay in the lawsuit.

"I don't care if they dig up the entire yard. They're just going to make fools of themselves,"
said Peggy Greenbaum, Hawke's mother. "There's absolutely no reason for them to think that
Davis Hawke would be stupid enough to bury gold on our property. My son is long gone."

She said her husband and father intend to challenge AOL's plans to dig on the family's
property and search the family's 3,000-square-foot home.
She said AOL's lawyer notified the family that the company intends to use bulldozers
and geological teams to hunt for gold and platinum on their property.

Greenbaum said she has not talked with her son in more than a year and complained
about the embarrassment and humiliation he brought to the family.
Greenbaum said the family believes Hawke buried gold in the White Mountains 130 miles
north of Boston. She said he once confided to her that he bought gold
-- rather than expensive homes or cars -- because it would be more difficult to seize
in lawsuits. "We don't know where is he," she said.
"We certainly wouldn't allow him to put any gold on our property."

AOL defended its efforts.

What the hell?? :rofl:
I feel bad for these parents.
They seem quite elderly and baffled by all of this.
The son should show up and come clean, imho.
Save his parents this grief!

1. They need to dig for gold in the Caymans

Any shiny rocks the guy had were probably made into gaudy jewelry and were on his person when he absconded.

He's laughing his ass off at AOL, his parents, and every person whose inbox he clogged with those penis enlargement ads.

He's just got to be a Repug, yanno?
