The Aliens are coming! The Aliens are coming! Folks don't believe it. The only aliens that are coming are sneaking under a fence somewhere along the Texas border. How can I be so sure? Well, for one thing we've caught a few of them and they don't have tentacles, ray guns or flying saucers. What they do have is bad breath, bad directions and a pocket full of jallopenos. Sorry, no mystery here.
In 1996, I wrote a science fiction novel entitled "Voice in the Mirror." It was a fictional story about the discovery of life on another planet. The other planet was Earth. Yes, they discovered us. Now that's a switch. In my pursuit to find a publisher, I found that I was gathering enough rejection slips to wallpaper my house. Since, my wife felt that the rejection slip pattern did not fit the decor, I decided it was time for a different approach to this publising game. So, Doctor Lee Shargel, Top Secret NASA scientist was born.
I decided that the best way to get the book published was to make the slightest inference that it just might be real. Lo and behold, the NEW AGE publishers were beating down my door. I secured a publisher and a nice (if not small) advance check. I was ready to meet the world as a fictional Top Secret NASA scientist and holder of a PhD in Egyptian Quantum Mechanics...
Claims alien dolphins contacted him, has Flipper and ET confused. False Claims: Worked for NASA, has degree in Egyptian Quantum Physics, has degrees from universities that don't exist. Was actually invited to speak at International UFO Congress, the joke was on the conference as no one checked Shargel's credentials and the International UFO Congress continues to be the victim of UFO con artists. Shows pictures of UFO and aliens that are obviously fraudulent. Reported to be associated with the Heaven's Gate cult.

Even in the fantastic world of alien abductions, UFO crashes and massive government conspiracies, Lauderhill author Lee Shargel works close to the outer limits. Armed with items he identifies as secret photos taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, debris from a flying saucer and a mark on his chest left by dolphin-like aliens, the science-fiction writer has been touring the country since November, publicizing his new novel, Voice in the Mirror. The story was inspired, Shargel says, by his real-life meeting with beings from another solar system in 1993.

He claims he took part in UFO hoaxing at the behest of NASA officials
who later were untraceable. If he admits to being a haoxer of one sort, is
he pulling off another one now?

The more I read this the more I am swayed in to thinking that this is all part of an agenda, I mean it fits nicely in to the whole new planets, that are doing the rounds on the MSM at the moment. Of course it could also be that he is looking to get his hands on as much money as possible.
I am on the fence at the moment, but one things for sure. If NASA are involved then we know there is an agenda at play.

I thought if an intelligence agency provided credentials, they would plant corresponding records to support those credentials at the relevant locations, Like universities, employers, so the credentials would check out.

I doubt NASA was actually behind the whole thing. More than likely it would have been an intelligence agency. It's a classic disinfo technique, to spread some truth within the disinformation, so that by association, the truth is discredited along with the blatant disinformation.
So wouldn't credentials provided by an intelligence organization check out better than that?
During those two days we performed an extensive check on his
alleged credentials. We found absolutely no record of his PhD at
the university from which he allegedly got it. We couldn't locate
any office at JPL that could confirm his association with that
lab and so on. We called several institutions where Shargel said
he had studied or worked. No confirmation of his 'credentials'
was found...
He's not the only one in the UFO community with false credentials? Well I guess we better be careful about who to believe.
I just wanted to share that with you. I still don't know who
Shargel is and why he insists on giving us false information on
his background. But I certainly know that there are a lot of
people like him in the UFO community, in the USA, Brazil and
everywhere...
