No he wasnt, you found a guy named Pete Meier that builds boats. I wonder how many pete meiers there are? Also, wouldn't his LINKEDIN profile say he OWNED a car dealership and not "Sales Manager" which are two COMPLETELY different things. And I imagine being a ship builder would come up as well.
Its general practice when running a scam to use names of successful businessmen to prop up their fake companies. Another perfect example.
Oh yeah, since my name is Steve Allen I guess that makes me the famous comedian huh? Pure BS.
