A former popular radio personality from central PA, Bruce Bond, was arrested in NYC for his alleged role in a phony check scheme. Apparently, he has been issuing checks to people, who are applying for a work at home program. The people receive the initial check, and are instructed to send 90% of the check to an overseas account, which gets the money before the applicants' banks learn that the original check was a phony. Yhe overseas contact would then send Bond his cut.

Bond won a Marconi award for outstanding radio personality in a mid market in the 1990s. He had the afternoon drive home hours and was a bit of a controversial shock jock.
