wasn’t there another fraudulent poster who claimed to be in Poland, posting in broken english, and claimed all these tragedies like car accidents killing family members etc. i don’t recall the name or how he was unmasked, but i have some recollection of the saga.
There have certainly been a variety of frauds and pretenders. I have also met in person a FR poster or two that were probably people that belonged under professional mental healthcare. (Not as high percentage as the US Congress of course, but we do have our nut-jobs).
And of course the frauds who left in shame....then slurked back under new names pretending to be different people.
