Iran Contra Hoax In 1987, the press was introduced to Mehdi Behremani, an Iranian arms merchant who supposedly made six million dollars in commission on the sale of U.S. arms to Iran. He summoned the media to announce that he wanted to give the money back. Behind the hoax was infamous media hoaxer Alan Abel, who hired actors and friends to play the roles of Behremani, his girlfriend and their bodyguards. He then arranged the press conference that was attended by all the major media. The story was never questioned and it wound up on the national news.
