Elon Musk Chief Nerd's Elaborate $1,000 Troll Scam
Ahmad Loureiro редактировал эту страницу 3 месяцев назад


One of Elon Musk’s nerd army is trolling his brand-new fans by charging $1,000 to read a manifesto about why he signed up with DOGE - only to discover the post is blank.

Gavin Kliger, 25, is among six baby-faced young boys with little-to-no federal government experience handpicked by the ‘First Buddy’ to sow havoc in the civil service.

He was the one who sent out a company-wide email sent to workers at USAID informing them not to come into the firm’s Washington DC head office on Monday.

Kliger sent the guideline from a USAID email address he was offered with as part of high-level access to its systems, together with fellow DOGE nerd Luke Farritor.

While the staff were kept home, DOGE gained access to the company’s IT system, developing security, and classified materials, and began dismantling it.

Just hours before he sent the email, Kliger made a post on his Substack page entitled: ‘Why DOGE. Why I quit a seven-figure salary to conserve America.’

Unlike the rest of his Substack, the post was ‘customer only’ with a $1,000-a-month charge - or $10,000 for an entire year - to access a single word of it.

However, those who wondered enough to spend the remarkable cost discovered there wasn’t even that - the post was entirely blank.

Kliger made a post on his Substack page entitled: ‘Why DOGE. Why I quit a seven-figure wage to save America’. Despite a $1,000 paywall, it is completely empty

‘Poetically blank, please reevaluate your life choices,’ one talk about the post read.

Kliger advanced his intricate trolling with an unusual voicemail welcoming that pointed anybody who called his registered phone number to the post.

‘I simply composed a gorgeous Substack on this, the Weekly Byte, if you just go there, it’s behind the paywall, however I think it will answer that question for you … it’s quite excellent,’ he said.

The one-minute greeting was an elongated variation of the prank where the owner of the phone pretends to answer, but it is actually taped.

Kliger first pretended he was driving through a tunnel and having difficulty hearing the call, then ultimately exclaiming, ‘They said what? No, no, I don’t think that’s right.’

The recorded message then made its pitch for the caller to read his Substack.

Despite its name, the Substack was not upgraded weekly, and just has 2 other posts - both of which are free to read.

They are both strident defenses of Donald Trump’s most questionable cabinet elections - Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth.

Gaetz was nominated for attorney-general but withdrew after a damning House report discovered he paid for sex with 17-year-old lady and many other misbehaviors.

Kliger’s post entitled ‘The Curious Case of Matt Gaetz: How the Deep State Destroys Its Enemies’ portrayed Gaetz as an innocent victim who was ‘framed’.

His other post, ‘Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense: The Warrior Washington Fears’, was an enthusiastic defense of the previous Fox News host’s election filled with frequent Trump-ally talking points.

Hegseth was narrowly confirmed by the Senate regardless of his history of alcoholic abuse and claims of sexual assault and harassment.

Kliger’s claim that he left a ‘seven-figure job’ to sign up with DOGE is also suspicious as his private sector work history didn’t include such a role.

His newest task, according to his LinkedIn, was as a ‘senior software engineer’ at Databricks, a cloud computing firm in San Francisco, from May 2020 to last month.

Salaries for that position at Databricks vary from $102,000 to $308,000 a year according to Certainly, while Glassdoor puts the leading end at $321,000, consisting of reward.

The Berkeley graduate apparently advised all workers at the agency not to go back to Washington headquarters on Monday

Kliger graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, in 2020 and interned at Twitter in 2019 - well before Musk’s takeover in 2022.

Musk last month selected him an unique adviser to the director for details innovation at the Office of Personnel Management, where many other Musk lackeys were set up.

The Tesla owner has basically taken control of the OPM, together with the General Services Administration, through his leadership of DOGE.

Kliger’s now-deleted Github from his time at Berkeley claims he is an Eagle Scout, National Merit Scholar, National AP Scholar, a first dan in Taekwondo, and an accomplished pianist.

‘I wish to do work that will affect the future,’ it checked out.

‘Whether that means developing software, researching system implementation, or operating in some other sphere, I know that I will contribute insight and bybio.co creativity towards meeting the obstacles I deal with.

‘In my extra time, I take pleasure in playing the piano and clarinet and participating in music shows at Berkeley. Among my preferred activities is playing online blitz chess.’

Kliger’s dad, Larry Kliger, is president of Lawrence Allen & Associates, an industrial realty company.

Musk last month designated Kliger an unique consultant to the director for details innovation at the Office of Personnel Management, where various other Musk lackeys were installed

Who are Musk’s other nerds?

Musk enlisted a performers of young men aged 19 to 25 - three of whom are thought to still remain in college - to fill high-powered engineering roles and cut costs.

At just 19, Edward Coristine is the youngest of the fresh-faced bunch taking on business America and longstanding federal government institutions.

According to WIRED, he’s been dubbed an ‘professional’ in his field, and specifics about his role aren’t yet clear.

Akash Bobba, 21, Ethan Shaotran, 22, and Luke Farritor, 23, along with Coristine, have actually supposedly been approved A-suite level clearance for oke.zone their work, meaning they can work out of the firm’s top flooring with access to all physical spaces and IT systems.

Musk’s DOGE has been rapidly growing in power and broadening its remit, most recently securing clearance to access to restricted parts of the General Services Administration buildings and IT systems.

These systems keep sensitive information including social security numbers, addresses and [strikez.awardspace.info](http://strikez.awardspace.info/index.php?PHPSESSID=43ccd366b82e6c4eca2aefc1c771fab1&action=profile
