While we were creating the legal documents in order to proceed, Markus Frind got progressively more aggressive and unresposive with us, and told us to speak with their employees, Kate and Jay, because there was a serial killer, murdering people from the website.
If you ask me, both of them sound crazy and deluded. Marcus' story doesn't make much sense if you read the email on that site[1], but carrying on about serial killers doesn't help your case much either. And that freelancer link is just a red herring - I can't see what it's got to do with the case at hand.
[1] Update: Or even if you read his own post: "I listened in the background and I closed the breach if indeed there was one while my wife was on the phone". Er, was there a breach or not? And why are you calling his mother and not the police?
Mate, before you milk that 'interview' for eye-balls, just go back to the PoF article above and read the new comments.
Chris Russo is there commenting, and it calls your ability to judge character into question. For starters, he has never denied the story about Russians holding his computer hostage and threatening to kill him. He just ignored it. Then he goes for the "race" card and says PoF are suspicious of his intent just because he is in Argentina.
Why haven't you denied the puppies kidnapping, mahmud? I can overlook the Yakuza. I have seen some movies about them and they look cool, but kidnapping puppies?
I believe the PoF guy simply because he has more to lose. You can already see this Russo character writing his own "If I Did It"[1] account of the tale. Looks like his attempt at getting a gig backfired.
I just spoke directly with Chris Russo over Skype.
He is extremely upset about the whole situation.
I don't want to put any words on his mouth.
He tells his own version of the events on the link above which he allowed me to post on his behalf.
I think that document raises a lot more questions than it answers, and some of those questions would have me 'extremely upset' too if I was on the receiving side of them.
