Did Craig Wright just submit a faked email as evidence for his lawsuit?

In what could be a new twist in the ongoing saga of Craig Wright suing everybody, Reddit user u/Contrarian__ has posted the claim that an email that Wright is submitting into evidence as part of his case is in fact, at least partly, fabricated. The allegation goes on to say that it is provable that the date is false by analyzing the PGP signature.

The fraud continues - Craig Wright just purposely submitted a provably fake email into evidence in the Kleiman-Wright case from r/Bitcoin

The whole post is worth a read, but the essential claim is as follows:

"Craig Wright's fraud continues. Yesterday, he submitted into evidence an email he says was from Dave Kleiman to Uyen Nguyen asking her to be a director of his 'bitcoin company' in late 2012.

It is provably fake.

Craig didn't realize that the email's PGP signature includes a signing timestamp along with the ID of the key used as metadata. Was the email actually sent in 2012? Let's find out!"

The user goes onto say that by analyzing the PGP signature of the message, which anyone can do themselves, the actual date of the email is March 12, 2014. This is relevant not only because it falsifies Wright's claim, but also because submitting forged evidence is illegal.

To be clear, Chepicap has not independently verified this finding, though many on Reddit and Twitter seem satisfied that this is accurate.

Hey @CalvinAyre, has it crossed your mind why I’m not worried about going to court?https://t.co/sakC7cfwLr
