Maybe people wouldn't give you such a hard time about this if you actually posted some proof that this business exists, like those newspaper articles.

OK I'll take that out.
 
Ah, so thanks for the link to the article about you.

Just so you know, that paper has circulation of about 55,000. A little off from your claims that would imply it was the Post-Dispatch.
 
OMG! What a concidence. Let me FW this e-mail to you from my current Investment opportunity. I've been dealing with this Nigerian Prince for only a week and have had to upfront some money, but the Payoff is awesome!!
 
Hello greatest of acquantices,

I have the hearty some of $33 million I wish to share at your purveyance with no stringage attached. However I must say it is locked in the Nation Bank of Nigeria by its former owner. If you would provide me a simple transaction fee along with your routing an account number so I may deposit the $33 million whereas you may keep $3 million for your troubalege up my withdrawing the remainder. Please let me know fortwith.

God Bless,

Rev. Rudder Mokimbe.

I don't know where he found it, but you can confirm it by searching for the name of the paper on google and looking at their employer info page on CareerBuilder (~7th result on Google).

So from what I gather on your website, this company is not actually doing anything yet? Why not? It looks like you've developed at least some of the functionality already. I think if you started operating the website and established a user base that hopefully would grow at a steady pace, you'd probably have an easier time getting people to invest.

1.5million? Where did that come from?

Yea, just a few years ago, last I actually checked the stats, their circulation was huge. I remember reading that the paper was going downhill, but yea, I didn't even realize circulation was that poor. LOL, even I lol'd at them. internet news ftw.

Yea, most of the functionality is there, and I've been working on it in my spare time. Part of why I want to raise the money is so I can pull a modest salary and work on it fulltime. I've only got about 15% left of the app to develop, and the hardest parts are already out of the way. I want to also pay for hosting services, buy a bladeframe, etc.

This has nothing to do with my thread. I've validated what I've said to those who asked for it (via pm). I'm not going to announce the "details at" a public forum.
