So as some of you know, I’m currently running a Reg CF (equity crowdfunding) fundraise on a public platform. I have gotten a few boilerplate emails for various things from people who scrape crowdfunding sites and SEC reports.
This is probably the third random email I’ve gotten from an “investment group” out of Thailand. I’m hard up for capital, but not that desperate. I know this has got to be a scam.. but just curious how they could scam me.
Here’s the email.
Here’s the guy that’s supposedly emailing me. Chatchai Kaewbootta
Any “Nigerian prince” level scammer can pretend to be a billionaire and spoof an email. Odds of me knowing how to verify this guys identity are low.
So...
What’s the game here? How are they going to rip me off?
On the incredibly rare chance this is legit, how do you verify the identity of someone like this?
