Thats if its real and its not a phishing exercise to identify the ip address of posters for intelligence gathering purposes. If scan hacker news every few seconds from a variety of different IP addresses, see who is logged on and posting and then see who clicks the honeypot. Simplez!

No the website which highlighted an anomaly. I could spot something up with a big entity, knock out a website highlighting that when all the while I'm looking to identify the user.
