Lying on an internet forum?

Yeah I dont know what to believe about Harley because every post he typed included information about some kind of "business trip" or super car :p Check out this post for example, number 2.

Harley

I remember a poster called Harley from my lurking days. He was very helpful on legal and business matters, but some of what he claimed seemed a bit far-fetched:

  • Owned multiple properties in the UK
  • Lived in California
  • Had met Michael Jackson and been to Neverland
  • Had met Tom Cruise
  • Had owned many sports cars including a DB9 I believe
  • Charged £2000 per hour for consultancy on whatever he did

I suppose this all could be true, but you have to wonder why somebody with all that would bother posting on an internet forum so much.

I seem to remember he left when somebody called all of that into question.

I remember him, he always seems quite a nice bloke.

And that boys is exactly why he left.....
 
But for a guy so educated his spelling was pretty bad which made me consider it was some 16 year old having a laugh :p Although he did seem like a nice bloke.

I don't remember his spelling being bad. His posts always struck me as being particularly well-presented.
 
Wasnt there some guy who claimed his classic sports car had been robbed by thieves with a trailer, he later showed us photos the 'police had taken' of it wrapped round a tree, real close up rubbish of the welds. One of the dons busted him big time by posting a site with the exact same photos on it, the car wasnt even his :D

They were well presented, however look at the spelling in the last few posts he has on here.

He tried to pass off someones else deviant art account as his own. It was actually his friends. Then he created an apology thread and responded with his second account forgiving him.

I was in the original thread but I missed that, wish it was archived.

I remember some things even more fantastic than that but you know what? I had no reason to disbelieve him, if only for a vicarious thrill. He seemed to have a very plausible back-story, despite being pretty guarded in what he said.

Which might explain his multiple sports cars, properties and jet set lifestyle?
 
Not from here, but on the Anandtech forums (when I posted there and before I posted here) there was a guy called Dennilfloss.

It was posted up on The Register - that states better than I could post!

That's the biggest one I've personally witnessed.
