It is beyond me that anyone would actually try to fake such a significant identity. Does this man have any self-respect?

People don't have self respect in a lot of situations. For example: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/10/sports/julie-miller-ironma...

Geeze.
It sounds like he might be a scam artist, so I guess the answer is no. If you're going to con the tax man out of millions of dollars, creating a fake identity probably isn't going to worry him too much.
But I'm wondering: what if he is a scam artist and he actually is Satoshi?
If I walk into the room and you see me, you'll (subconsciously) assign a zero-chance that I'm the queen on England. Why would that become non-zero when I present obviously faked proof (a paper crown, etc).
Why would CW's obviously faked evidence provide any support for his claims?
