So the original posting of, "I know of a business that is gearing up
soon..." basically means, "I am starting a business!"  I don't mind that
you are doing it, but am curious as to why the deceptive manner of
introducing it.  No better way to make someone suspicious right from the
start!  Definitely makes me think that something funny is going on
here!  Anyway, In am very seriously interested in your business, but am
very leary already of your business practices.  Please explain, if you
could.  Had you posted, "I am starting a business with..."  But to say,
"I know of a business that..." when it is your business seems
intentionally deceitful-sorry, but that is just how it seems to me.  We
have a very open and honest digest-I think you can just lay out the
facts.
