I find it funny how the "look" of a website can make people decide whether or not to trust you. Folks, it's incredibly easy nowadays to make a "professional" looking website. That means nothing. Just because he didn't find a high schooler to make a neat looking website, or spend a few bucks on Frontpage and a few days to throw together some standard templates and digital photos doesn't say anything about how legit a business he runs. Hell, look at Google. Incredibly simple website, your 15 year old kids could have designed it, and they're about to go on an IPO worth kazillions of $$$. If you knew nothing about Google, and stumbled on it, what would you think?
What matters is that he's a treasure hunter, who is asking a waitress to do a job that relies on her ability to find difficult-to-find stuff in deep waters, and if they don't find the stuff he doesn't make money. If it wasn't difficult to find it would have been found by now. Why would he bet his income and liability on someone who has never done that before? THAT is what doesn't make sense.
