A 24-year-old man ended up in prison after attempting a scam that turned out to be legally impossible to complete. Deepak Singh walked into a watch shop in Singapore with a watch he was convinced was a counterfeit Rolex GMT-Master II Saru. He traded that watch for three authentic Rolex timepieces worth a combined total of approximately $71,000, genuinely believing he was offloading a fake item to unsuspecting buyers.
According to Dexerto, things fell apart for Singh almost immediately after he completed the trade. He tried to leave Singapore on a late-night flight shortly after the exchange, but authorities caught up with him quickly.
