The post looks more like phishing for info (trying to get specific lender institution names) than someone (pretending to be) writing a paper on fraud.
It was sarcasm. Obviously it didn't translate well.
I prefer not to come to rash conclusions about people's motivations. I am always vigilant (hence no loans to people who can't get a loan from a bank who has the capital and resources to price risk) but i do address things in good faith. If someone wants to commit fraud they will find a way and if they have to come to RFD to play us they are very small time losers.
But if we assume everyone who is unconventional is up to malfeasance then we will become paranoid mobs very quickly.
In fact in Rand McNally they wear hats on their feet and hamburgers eat people

This is exactly what's going on here.
His other posts (pretending to be writing a thesis on fraud) all have the same approach to the topic. Pretend to be the lender to try phish info for a purpose and how not to get caught.

Every lending division includes procedures and processes that are required to be signed off by the verification and compliance dept. Highly suspect the OP is trying to find a way to circumvent these procedures for personal gain.
