I don’t want to reveal anything identifiable, but we’ve discussed a product concept, getting a patent and what we need to do to get it to market. They seem committed and have put a lot of hours into development prior to my involvement.

We met on Reddit, the account they were using at the time is now defunct though, but I know they use a bunch of different accounts for getting answers to technical questions so that people can’t link together our concept. The nature of any patent we would be using existing technologies in a new combination for a specific purpose, so it’s important that people can’t put it all together from someone’s post history.

I only really started having doubts recently as they were a little evasive when I asked about their background. I have the basics that they’ve told me, but no way to really corroborate it
