Conposting
A goalpost‑moving and proofposting tactic focused on proving that the target is a “con artist.” The perpetrator demands financial disclosures, tax records, or impossible accounts of where every dollar goes, then declares that any lack of transparency (or any transparency that shows income) as proof of fraud. Conposting sets a trap: if the target is unpaid, they are accused of “working for exposure”; if they charge anything, they are accused of profiteering. The real goal is to exhaust and discredit.
Example: “She published her budget; he demanded receipts for every expense. When she provided them, he said ‘look how much she made.’ Conposting: moving the goalposts from ‘show us’ to ‘you’re making money.’”
