Scientology --- The Observer: John Mappin sued
Quote:
Benjamin "the binman" Pell, known for rifling through celebrities' rubbish, has won a court victory against a man who promised to make a film of his life.
He will now get £77,500 back from businessman John Mappin, who told Mr Pell he could turn his story into a Hollywood blockbuster.
Mr Pell said he had been "duped" into handing over the money to Mr Mappin, who claimed he would sign up a famous film director.
