An e-mail hoax is now a part of the ongoing saga as Precourt Sports Venture considers moving Columbus Crew SC from its 22-year home to Austin, TX.
This week, Massive Report received copies of an e-mail exchange between President of Precourt Sports Venture Dave Greeley and a hoaxer discussing the recent #SaveTheCrew movement that has gained momentum since Precourt’s announcement of the possible move on Oct. 17.
Using a Gmail account to masquerade as Major League Soccer President and Deputy Commissioner Mark Abbott, the hoaxer sent Greeley an email asking if PSV was sending anyone to Crew SC’s home playoff game on Tuesday.
