A journalistic colleague contacted Fabian with the lie that his boss wanted Fabian to change the story, then admitted that he was invested in the wager, and offered to split the money with Fabian.
Then, a gambler calling himself "Haim" sent Fabian a new series of blood-curdling threats, including a promise to spend at least $900,000 (the money Haim said he stood to lose) on a hit-man to kill Fabian. Haim threatened Fabian's "lovely parents" and "brothers and sisters" too.
