runandadd, Indy has posted who he works for and given instructions as to where to locate his identity on their web site. A Google search using that name will offer up plenty of information on him.
Indy and I have communicated from his personal email address, and from his Ashland University email address. Although I've never met him in person, I've found nothing to indicate he is someone other than who he claims to be.
I know a couple of posters have met him in person, so perhaps they can share their experience to resolve your concerns.
I know many of us wonder why he appeared here when he did, starting discussions about the technology, combat tactics, and how smaller companies in this industry work together. For a time I was suspicious he was a company plant. Now I believe if the company did initiate his involvement with the shareholders, it wasn't to pump the stock but to help educate us on how and why the company might pursue the tactical UAV niche. Whatever the reasons for his appearance, I think we're better off as shareholders because of it. I've learned a lot and now have a better understanding of the direction the company is headed in the near term. It's clear his involvement with WSGI gives him access to insider information, but he's been very open about that, the NDAs he's had to sign, and the boundaries of what he can and cannot discuss. That's a pretty find line to walk, but that doesn't make the discussion efforts inappropriate.
If Indy is now considering taking part in the private placement, he must see real promise in where the company is headed. I'd really like to see him make a great return on his investment as well as his satisfaction for helping a struggling company succeed. Any funding received from private placement is funding the company doesn't have to get from the toxic La Jolla Cove source.
