<RainMan28> I just wanted to ask you about ninjashogun...he keeps trying to solicit a loan in OTC for $30,000 USD for some business of his
<RainMan28> and he seems like a scammer to me
<RainMan28> saw that you negatively rated him, so was hoping you could provide some insight
<benkay> he's a USG plant to the best i can determine.
<RainMan28> whats USG?
<benkay> United States Government.
<benkay> there's nothing aboveboard about his operation.
<RainMan28> ohh
<RainMan28> gotcha
<RainMan28> he seems like a joke
<RainMan28> i asked him what he needs the $30k for
<RainMan28> this was his response, and it sounds like it was written by a 4th grader
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> RainMan28 the following is the usage for the $30K:
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 1) I will immediately pay past-due Delaware franchise tax of $1200 or so on the one idea that is incorporated
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 2) I will immediately file 7 pending legal documents (basic protections) as advised by several famous and respected inventors
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 3) I will incorporate the second idea, which is currently unincorporated
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 4) I will quit a day job in which I am netting $35/day but have full health coverage.
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 5) I will buy a computer that has a dedicated graphics card so that I can render my product renders on one of the ideas without waiting overnight for
them.
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 6) I will buy a suit, a used Rolex submariner, and travel and meet with a respected VC I have a warm intro to.  (This part is secret and a bit
embarrassing, let's not pastebin it)
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 7) I will travel to other investors who will take my meetings due to the first investor taking the meeting
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 8) I will spend a little bit of money on my own  startup lawyer to review terms.
<RainMan28> <ninjashogun> 9) The rest is at present unallocated, but there is a chance there are unforeseen difficulties since there are several projects going on at once.  Elon
Musk did NOT expect to have to spend his ENTIRE PayPal fortune on both SpaceX and Tesla, but he did.
<RainMan28> (sorry for the PM vomit)
<benkay> np - next time pastebin it
<benkay> and actually hang on
<RainMan28> ah good idea
<benkay> and sign it with your key
<benkay> dump it into -assets
<RainMan28> ok, I'm really new to gpg
<RainMan28> but a user in otc did walk me through setting up a key
<RainMan28> and I have a little linux box here that I have been using for it
<benkay> gpg --clearsign -a
<RainMan28> so let me try to google a little
<RainMan28> oh ok
<RainMan28> that works too
<benkay> well, maybe
<benkay> google it too who knows if my finger macros are any good
<RainMan28> ok so I did: gpg --clearsign /tmp/ninja
<benkay> you'll want the -a
<benkay> that puts it into ascii
<RainMan28> then I did cat /tmp/ninja.asc | curl -Ss -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
<RainMan28> and I got this back: http://sprunge.us/iXOh
<benkay> ah
<benkay> great
<RainMan28> ah ok, should i redo it?
<benkay> no no that's great, if your sig validates
<RainMan28> ok cool
<benkay> now hie thee to -assets and i'll up you and paste that link in
<RainMan28> I had written a few notes to myself from last time when a user taught me how to do this
<benkay> does sprunge hang on?
<benkay> persist i mean?
<RainMan28> i'm not sure...
<benkay> meh.
<RainMan28> sorry, still new to this, wish i had answers haha
<benkay> to assets!
<benkay> np.
<benkay> i can host it on my blog, too.
<benkay> and will, if you're amenable.
<RainMan28> I don't mind, but one thing that I'd like to tell you is that when ninjashogun didn't like that I wasn't interested in investing with him
<RainMan28> he started looking at my gpg key
<RainMan28> and I had my previous gpg key using my main email address (because I set it up to do a paypal deal with an established user in OTC and he wanted the key to be signing
for the paypal email address).
<RainMan28> When I realized this, I changed my gpg key to hide that email from being associated with my WoT
<RainMan28> and ninjashogun reported me to ***
<RainMan28> saying I must be a scammer for doing that
<RainMan28> all I wanted was the guy to not know it since I feel like he's the scammer
<benkay> fascinating.
<benkay> make a statement to that effect and sign it as well, please.
<RainMan28> so *** hit me up this morning asking why I changed it
<RainMan28> after i explained it to him, he told me ok no big deal and that he believes me
<benkay> hang on let's take this to -assets
<benkay> pasting...
<benkay> do you mind?
<benkay> it's logged in public.
<RainMan28> but just shady that ninjashogun wanted to secretly try to out me or something
<benkay> yeah he's a shady fucker.
<benkay> may i paste this to -assets?
<RainMan28> sure, you want to paste the sprunge link? go for it
<benkay> and this conversation if you don't mind.
<RainMan28> if *** is cool with it?
<RainMan28> i dunno what the PM rules are
<benkay> and auth up, as well, please
<RainMan28> around here
<benkay> eh, try it and see
<RainMan28> auth up?
<RainMan28> is there anything else I need to do
<RainMan28> I did auth I believe
<benkay> nah, it looks like you're authenticated.
<RainMan28> k cool
<RainMan28> not sure what the dudes motives are but he's shady seeming
<benkay> yeah i hear you.
<RainMan28> good to know you feel the same way about the dude, he just seems like a different scammer from the regular kind that are in OTC
<RainMan28> but still seems very scammy
<benkay> well, government agents man.
<benkay> watch out, they're only going to get better.
<RainMan28> he told me his identity
<RainMan28> then tried to ask mine
<benkay> "identity"
<RainMan28> yeah
<RainMan28> prolly fake
<benkay> totally fake.
<benkay> paul graham of ycombinator completely disavowed him.
<RainMan28> he created his own gpg key 5 days ago with ycombinator in the email or something
<RainMan28> then acted like he had no clue how that got there
<RainMan28> and not to use that email
<benkay> who, graham?
<benkay> or nj?
<RainMan28> no nj
<RainMan28> the user Caerian looked up his gpg key and saw that email address and that the key was made like 5 days ago, so when he said ok i'll email you at that email he was
like i don't know how that got there, thats not the email i use anymore
<RainMan28> or something to that effect
<RainMan28> when he made the key 5 days ago haha
