  It is possible that this is the same Hubert Pototschnig?

  Pototschnig has large civil judgments against him, and is fighting them. Is it possible that he needs to remain hidden to protect his "winnings" from creditors? See these links:

  Interesting..... Pototschnig is from Austria, lives in CT, and it appears as though possibly he has created Delaware and Austrian companies to protect from creditors. Just conjecture.
