So to sum it up: A guy named ConspiracyFacts entered the ARCH thread with some background info on "Edgar Soares".
I read the post and saw there was prior signs of scamming on the internet (he had a paypal phishing scam going) aswell as using different addresses and names.
Very dodgy stuff and if he found this in 1 hour of searching I wonder what ends up after a day or two.. I'm sure he removed it for concern of being reported to the police for it.
Does anyone have a backup? Or can ConspiracyFacts repost it here. unmodded thread
BTCArchitect then proceed to first deny the claim it was him and laughed at the guy.
A few hours later he wiped out all the posts regarding it and locked the thread because of "FUD".
But leaving out other fud in it except for the dox/background check
I'm guessing he thought that nobody could look that up.
There has been other alarming behaviour in the thread such as.. well, if you ask anyone why invest in ARCH they will tell you to read the whitepaper. Ask them again and they say it can't be TLDR because it's all in the whitepaper. If you read the whitepaper, you don't understand shit really. And nobody can understand it that's why they can't tell you why you should invest in ARCH at all.. pretty absurd situation. Anyone taking up this will be defamed as a "troll" or "fud".
I'd also be worried that if he has displayed such behaviour in the past what's to stop him from more dubious behaviour. Buying into his own ICO comes to mind.
Screams bad news. And then like any scammer would do for damage control - lock the thread, wipe out the posts. I'd be careful.
