- the full loan is due back in two years
- $600,000 fee paid to Bill up front.- Bill wanted 25% of all the upside on the full $25 million in shares for the next ten years.Even Altucher admits, "I had never seen a term in a loan like that." But the Mystery Magnate immediately agreed to the ridiculous terms, and no red flags went up. The MM sent over alleged pictures of the shares, and $15,000 to cover "Bill"'s legal fees, and no flags went up. "Bill" wanted permission from the internet company to become the shareholder should the MM default on the loan, and was immediately sent documents signed by the company's head of investor relations on what appeared to be the company's letterhead. A contact number was included.
