It's all circumstantial evidence but it looks as if Bobby Fischer 
is playing matches with other Masters at the International Chess 
Club site (http://www.chessclub.com). If you have been beaten recently
when you least expected, now you know who to blame. (-8

Bobby was the youngest International Grandmaster ever. He won 8 US 
Chess Championships, and won basically every game he played between 
1962 and 1972. 
He is now a recluse and has gone to extreme measures to stay hidden.

Here are some press reports on his supposed 'sighting'

The chess-themed movie 'Searching for Bobby Fischer' is about
a chess prodigy and is a pretty good watch.
