Yes, I'm that Rich Wordsworth from that article. Thank you for looking me up.

​

As of this exact moment (01:46am, May 5th, 2025), I have not read the finished article yet.

​

I know the story, I know the quotes I gave, and I know the research that I provided.

​

What I won't know until later today is how the final piece came together. So, until then, this is a page-in-progress that I will update later today.

​

BUT. This scam is hurting people and it would have hurt me and people I love if I hadn't been very, very lucky. If you read the story and are thinking to do a follow-up, I would love to help.

​

Go to my contact page and send me a message via the form. I'll get back to you ASAP.

​

In a genuine, completely non-twee way: thank you for your interest.
