There are many cases where asking the beneficiary is not necessary, fraud is only one of them.

And to clarify, it's not really "fraud", it's "claim by the originator that a fraud occurred". Which is a very different thing, and which matters immensely in practice.

oh, wait a second, it just factored a second one... (and no, it's not the one sharing a prime with the first factored one).

So summed up: 2 known keys factored so far, 2 more waiting to be identified among the running product (should apparently take a week to identify).
