Hacker News Reader

If you take the screenshot showing the leaked e-mail from an order 'he' placed at CardReaderFactory, you get an interesting data point:

- You can lookup orders tied to the e-mail address shatoshin@gmx.de - You cannot lookup order tied to gibberish accounts, like odn2n489n4@gmail.com

And what does this say?

That the order was real, but that doesn't necesarily mean Satoshi ordered it, since it could have been someone else giving his address.

That a legitimate order exists and has been placed using satoshi's email address.

The address is invalid.
