Anthony Papalia Sr. and Robert Papalia are Italian born twin brothers who are well known to police in Vancouver, Montreal and London. According to a January 4, 1996 edition of 'The Daily Mail' (London), Anthony Papalia Sr. escaped from prison while awaiting a 1980 trial on charges of defrauding investors of a gold mining scheme in British Columbia. According to a December 27, 1997 edition of 'The Vancouver Sun', the Papalia brothers and another partner, Giovanni Camporese, have had run-ins with securities regulators. The article stated that, "In 1977, they were arrested by Scotland Yard in an alleged plot to defraud investors through Metals Research, which claimed to have a gold mine in British Columbia. Despite intense media coverage and lengthy court proceedings, they were eventually acquitted of all charges. Meanwhile, Anthony Papalia had been charged in Vancouver with defrauding Continental Securities of $51,000. He was convicted in 1982 and sentenced to two years less a day, but the appeal court overturned the conviction and ordered a new trial." Although criminally charged with securities-related crimes on several occasions, they have never been convicted. They have, however, been blackballed from the Vancouver Stock Exchange.

The first condition of an illusion is, of course, that its victim should mistake it for a reality.
