Urbi, right as always.

Bookwyrm captured this on July 10 (the day after the answer and info was posted):

FraudMan      02:12:14 PM     Viewing the topic Anyone on Ashley Gaerke's loan (possibly in the name of Oakland Gaerke)?.

Anyone think this is actually meaningful?
 
 

Chamatrain immediately commented:

Sure.  Now he knows they got caught lying. Again.

Followed by beerbud's comment 15 minutes after bookwyrm's post:

Quote
He's still here and he is still reading that topic.


Plenty of proof that Prosper knew about this on July 10 and elected to do nothing until The Motley Fool shamed them into addressing this.

Wonder if Ferrix wouldn't mind getting a subpoena to turn over log/proof to the Judge to support the posts that make these points.

interesting perspective from an institutional (I think) lender

Quote from: jmweese September 30, 2008 1:17 PM
I know this conversation has moved on to other blogs and discussion boards but in the interest of time I would like to post my own small concern about Prosper.

As an investor, I like to carry out quite a bit of research before purchasing a stock (not as much as I should though). Likewise, I would like to carry out similar research on the borrowers especially on their income. As an accountant accustomed to auditing, I would at least like some documentation conerning what these people make. Yet, Prosper does not allow such information. As part of a business idea, I thought offering that verification (for a fee of course) would lend credibility to some borrowers with poor credit. To cover my butt legally, I asked Prosper if it would allow such a service. The answer? NO.

Now, despite the fact that I would have personally benefited from such assurance, I would just like to be able to do my due diligence and research these people and loans further. Also, according to the Prosper terms of use...you cannot contact the borrower in any form other than the little e-mail on their website. Prosper borrowers are prevented from giving out any personal information at any time (other than to group leaders). Thus, I am curious how non-group leaders can access that information. Please inform me if I am incorrect.

P.S. My Prosper ID is WeeseandAssociatesLLC

Classic comment from Urbi to a poster who said they were leaving:

"Once again, we note that your threats are hollow and you come across like a sad, lonely blowhard.

I doubt anyone here gives a shit about you.  We pretty much all know that you are a vile and unethical parasite of a human being with an abnormal craving for attention."
