Sorry I don't really understand your position.

You're rejecting the quotes from the article on the basis of the publication, suggesting a better accusation would be a "scam", and then refuting that accusation as baseless.

I'm not trying to be an ass, I mean this as kindly as possible, but this is a straw man argument. You should look into logical fallacies. They're well documented tactics for manipulating people and misrepresenting information. Everyone should. It will help you to reason about information and ultimately identify when you're being manipulated.
