The question I keep asking is: why? They give these patents to random people, and 5 or 10% of the proceeds if they win the suits. What do they get out of it?

If they were legit, then I don't see the need to assign the patents they own to someone else before litigating. Unless there's a gotcha, and it's a scam somehow.

Very strange, and just another reason why patents should probably be non-transferrable and "use it or lose it".
