As time went on, Olivia and the rest of the world were made to believe that Patrick was indeed dead, his death being declared legally in 2008. Then 11 years after he disappeared, a photograph was taken of a man in Mexico that looked eerily like the missing man. Police were eventually able to track him down and he was in fact, living under his birth name, Patrick Kim, and he had already moved on and happened to be in a new relationship. In the end, reports have said that Patrick just wanted to be left alone. Maybe being in the spotlight was just too much for him. Good thing Olivia has moved on too, having married someone else.

Canadian man, Frank Umbrello, was able to scam a great number of people via eBay and through credit card fraud. He sold items on the Internet site, turning miniscule numbers into larger ones on checks that were paid to him. He also found a credit card of one of his neighbors, which he ended up using, racking up a bill for almost $18,500.
