    I’d like to hear the whole story, like how hold was the scammed guy etc.

    To me it smells like he was an accomplice, or a very old person who is full of his company shit.

    Used to be so easy to spot scams and fakes, this stuff now is getting scary. I wonder if this will slow things down as we require face to face and in person confirmation.
