REYKJAVIK (Reuters) – A teen-ager says he convinced the White House he was Iceland’s president and managed to schedule a call with George W. Bush but was found out before he got to talk to the U.S. president.
“My call was transferred around a few times until I got hold of Bush’s secretary and managed to book a call meeting with Bush the following Monday evening,” Vifill Atlason, 16, told Reuters.
The teen-ager posed as Icelandic President Olafur Ragnar Grimsson when he made the call on Dec 1.
