TRANSCRIPT OF VIDEO FROM THE WEBSITE:

Hi there.  My name is Michael Crawford.  Yes, that guy you might have read about in Forbes and other financial magazines.  I'm also called the Wall Street Wizard, the Millionaire Trader, and the nicest rich guy in the world.  So why those names?  Well because I love money.  As you can see, I make a lot of money.  I'm very good at it.
This is my own private jet.  I'm just back from one of the many holidays I take every year all around the world.
But I'm not your average jerk millionaire.  I'm also a well-known philanthropist.  I like to help people more than anything else.  And I do this on a regular basis, or you might have read some articles about me before.  This is how you probably ended up on this website today.
Anyway, today is your lucky day.  I'm about to transform you into my next success story.
And no, I don't want anything in return.  I don't need anything from you.  If you read about me in Forbes, you know you know that I help people making a lot of money for free.
I just need a few minutes of your time, right now...

 

NOTE: As other sites have stated, the person in the video is an actor, or possibly the scammer behind it all.
