Elon Musk Chief Nerd’s Elaborate $1,000 Troll Scam

One of Elon Musk’s geek army is trolling his brand-new fans by charging $1,000 to read a manifesto about why he signed up with DOGE – only to discover the post is blank.

Gavin Kliger, 25, is one of 6 baby-faced kids with little-to-no government experience handpicked by the ‘First Buddy’ to plant havoc in the civil service.

He was the one who sent out a company-wide email sent out to staff members at USAID telling them not to come into the agency’s Washington DC head office on Monday.

Kliger sent the direction from a USAID email address he was offered with as part of top-level access to its systems, together with fellow DOGE nerd Luke Farritor.

While the personnel were kept home, DOGE gained access to the firm’s IT system, building security, and classified materials, and began dismantling it.

Just hours before he sent out the email, Kliger made a post on his Substack page titled: ‘Why DOGE. Why I gave up a seven-figure wage to conserve America.’

Unlike the rest of his Substack, the post was ‘customer just’ with a $1,000-a-month charge – or $10,000 for a whole year – to access a single word of it.

However, those who were curious adequate to spend the remarkable cost found there wasn’t even that – the post was entirely blank.

Kliger made a post on his Substack page entitled: ‘Why DOGE. Why I offered up a seven-figure salary to conserve America’. Despite a $1,000 paywall, it is completely empty

‘Poetically blank, please review your life options,’ one talk about the post read.

Kliger advanced his elaborate trolling with an unusual voicemail greeting that pointed anybody who called his authorized telephone number to the post.

‘I just wrote a stunning Substack on this, the Weekly Byte, if you simply go there, it’s behind the paywall, but I think it will respond to that concern for archmageriseswiki.com you … it’s pretty good,’ he said.

The one-minute welcoming was an elongated version of the prank where the owner of the phone pretends to answer, however it is really recorded.

Kliger first pretended he was driving through a tunnel and forum.batman.gainedge.org having trouble hearing the call, then eventually exclaiming, ‘They said what? No, no, I don’t believe that’s right.’

The recorded message then made its pitch for the caller to read his Substack.

Despite its name, the Substack was not updated weekly, and only has two other posts – both of which are complimentary to read.

They are both strident defenses of Donald Trump’s most controversial cabinet elections – Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth.

Gaetz was nominated for attorney-general but withdrew after a damning House report found he paid for sex with 17-year-old lady and many other misbehaviors.

Kliger’s post entitled ‘The Curious Case of Matt Gaetz: How the Deep State Destroys Its Enemies’ portrayed Gaetz as an innocent victim who was ‘framed’.

His other post, ‘Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense: The Warrior Washington Fears’, was a passionate defense of the previous Fox News host’s nomination filled with frequent Trump-ally talking points.

Hegseth was narrowly verified by the Senate regardless of his history of alcohol abuse and claims of sexual assault and harassment.

Kliger’s claim that he left a ‘seven-figure task’ to sign up with DOGE is likewise suspicious as his private sector work history didn’t include such a role.

His most recent task, according to his LinkedIn, was as a ‘senior software engineer’ at Databricks, a cloud computing company in San Francisco, from May 2020 to last month.

Salaries for that position at Databricks range from $102,000 to $308,000 a year according to Certainly, while Glassdoor puts the leading end at $321,000, including reward.

Musk last month appointed him a special advisor to the director for details technology at the Office of Personnel Management, where various other Musk lackeys were set up.

The Tesla owner has basically taken over the OPM, together with the General Services Administration, through his management of DOGE.

‘I want to do work that will affect the future,’ it checked out.

‘Whether that implies developing software application, looking into system deployment, or operating in some other sphere, I know that I will contribute insight and creativity towards meeting the I face.

‘In my extra time, I delight in playing the piano and clarinet and attending music shows at Berkeley. Among my favorite leisure activities is playing online blitz chess.’
