Michael Jackson's former bodyguard trying to sell his surgical mask caught on video.

It's a damn shame when someone who MJ trusted to guard him is now trying to make a buck after his death.  According to London's News of the World, this fool Eric Muhammad was caught on tape trying to sell the surgical mask that Michael was often photographed wearing.  Below is actual video of him bragging about knowing Michael, disappointed at not getting paid from the tour, showing a pay stub and negotiating to sell the mask.  Unknown to him, he was being set up by an investigator posing as a rich businessman. 





In the video you can hear him saying:
"It still has his MAKE-UP on it. It still SMELLS like him.
 
"It's very sentimental to me and it's personal. The number that I had initially in my mind was to offer it up for 200 hundred grand."
Then in an effort to prove his closeness to Jacko, and the provenance of his goods, the free-talking security man MOUTHED OFF about the night the King of pop died, BLAMED personal medic Dr Conrad Murray for the tragedy and BRAGGED how the Jackson children lovingly nicknamed him Big E.

Muhammad's attempt to line his own pockets comes just after Michael's rhinestone-studded glove - worn for his first Moonwalk dance in 1983 - was sold to a Hong Kong gaming resort boss for $350,000 (about £212,000). But that was a legitimate auction. Slippery Muhammad's offer is a hush-hush private get-rich-quick scheme.
 He seemed to have settled for $150,000
