I'm just going to stay away from this for the sake of my mental health. I want to make sure other people know about this, but it also just makes me feel bad to bring it up again every time. Yeah, obviously his screenshot was faked. You can tell the difference between mine and his -- the font looks bigger, kind of blurry, and looks photo-shopped to me. Mine is directly taken from windows snipping tool. Anyway.
And yeah, to AdolfinWolf, the biggest sign this was a scam should have been the guy's name - "Michael Rothschild". I googled that, and found people use that name to conduct financial fraud because it's a well-known rich family. Just google "Rothschild scam" and you'll see what I mean.
To each his own, right? If you want to scam people, fine.
But to do so, while spewing all this humanitarian bullshit about how you want to help the world, is so lame. So fucking lame, dude. Maybe go volunteer somewhere, if you're a billionaire with all that free time. Do something *actually* helpful.
Or at least be a better liar. This is just ridiculous.
