To be honest, even using it to convince somebody of something isn't a big scam if there is no victim. Maybe they just need it for credibility so somebody will take them seriously with some project they can perform. Kind of like people lying on a resume. Sure it's dishonest, but as long as they can fulfill the job it is victim-less.

Somebody may want to know why they're using it before selling them an address, that's fine. But to flame this guy for wanting to have an old address to look like an early adopter when there's no proof of scamming seems immature.

You mean just like it went down with Atriz?

A signature campaign turned red as blood, after it was disclosed that raised funds mentioned heavily in marketing, was in fact just made up numbers.

I respect that you are voicing your opinion, but i'd definitely argue that the general opinion here is different from yours.

General opinion of what? That it isn't proved that he's scamming? The example you cherry picked is completely irrelevant as we're talking about facts vs fiction. Wire fraud vs some guy who wants to look oldschool.

I respect that you think you know everything and that your assumptions are correct, but I'd definitely argue that the general opinion here is that you have absolutely no idea what he wants to do by proving he is oldschool into Bitcoin.
