Kevin Hart Was Scammed, Not Pranked

So, there's an update on the Kevin Hart story, and it turns out that the whole thing was more "con" than "prank."
You gotta feel pretty bad for the kid; it looks like a nasty recruiter was doing the whole thing as a scam.
Hart claims, in a police report, that a Kevin Riley falsely represented himself as a recruiter — a middle man to big-time college football programs — and led the 6-foot-5, 290-pounder and his family to believe there were scholarship offers available when there were none. Obtaining money with a false pretense is the charge on the report at this time, said Deputy Dan Lynch, who took the report. Finding Riley could be difficult, though.
The cops say they have "no info to identify a suspect." So the guy, really, is gone. This picture, we think, is the saddest part: He actually had a hat for California and a hat for Oregon, and made a big dramatic production of choosing which one he was going to put on. That really breaks our heart a little bit.
