Where do these people come from? Recently we reported on a man scamming money to build a bridge in Malaysia which we thought was pretty silly but this one comes close.

Sally Arlene Berry, 57, arrested on Tuesday, convinced people to invest in "Pan Fan," a real device described as something that attaches to the rear of a toilet, sucks air inside, and purifies it.



Subpoenaed bank records from the Sun Sentinel show money went toward clothes, spa services, dinners and more.

Berry did, however ,spend about $4,900 on the fans.

Three other people came forward to police saying they loaned Berry money for the "Pan Fan" but were never paid as well.

She faces a fraud charge and was booked into Palm Beach County Jail on Tuesday and released the same day on $4,500 bail.
