A dude was arrested after claiming to run an embassy for the fictional nation of “West Arctica, Saborga, Poulvia and Lodonia.”


According to investigators, the suspect, identified as Harsh Vardhan Jain, apparently tried to prove his legitimacy by driving around in high-end cars with fake diplomatic plates and showing people doctored photos of himself with Indian leaders. He also allegedly created fake passports, forged official documents and developed his own fake currencies.


That’s not where the money came from, however. Instead, Jain would allegedly tell people they could get overseas work, accept fat fees for organizing their “work visa” and then basically give them documents worth nothing more than the paper they were printed on.


Believe it or not, police had a problem with this, and Jain has since been arrested.
