Purl, both the original and the fake "confessions" were posted here on IHUB.
Thetruth101 (author of the first letter) was booted by Matt because he used a multiple alias.
Here's the good part:
Bartscambuster, the author of the second "confession" - was NOT booted for multiple aliases. He's gone now, but his alias was active for at least a month following the re-post.
Based on that, and other information in the second letter, I strongly believe these were two different posters. The first one was authentic - the second had a little misinformation added (email and bogus last name) so that the pumpers could prove it was a hoax.
Also - this bogus last name "Eisenweiner" - is clearly Jewish. Another way to draw attention off of the Bible Pumpers.
Convenient for them, eh?
