They opened in 1995 and have 20 years experience?

The woman in the picture is aposter on Dave's?

Donna Blue Aircraft is the same as DBA?

It describes a current event? (?)

I found Waldo on the Products page.

It's extremely amateur. It's most likely either a con, or someone playing around.

That's the supposed owner of the airplane that crashed in the Yucatan and was full of bales of cocaine.

Its records show it had gone from the U.S. to Guantanamo Bay twice--but no prisoners have ever been transferred from the US to Guantanamo.

Here's a link:

Obviously not a native speaker of English.

The photograph of the man and the woman working at the computer looks like some photos I've seen used for teaching ESL.

Yup, that's it. Some sort of murky intelligence related shenanigans going on there.

I was just amused by the half hearted attempt at the front company's website.

It's very incomplete, probably someone just trying their inexperienced hand at a business website. How could it be a hoax with that crappy of a webpage?!? If they were trying to rip someone off, it would be far more complete unless it was a total idiot designing it!
