even if he is satishi he will not say that. Maybe this is his strategy to stay anonymous to make people belive that he is scamer and attention whore

Greg Maxwell has already shown that this guy is using a backdated PGP key, and we haven't seen any messages signed by any of the addresses that satoshi used - so its probably a big hoax. One of the reasons someone might go through this is to use the 1 million Bitcoins as collateral to procure funds from private investors. Like the classic "pigeon drop" scam, leveraging that he "owns" this pile so he can get large sums from gullible people.
Otherwise, none of this makes sense. There is no advantage for the inventor of Bitcoin to be a public person, he already controls a significant amount of money. Privacy would be the first concern, so people don't start picking through his personal life and start to attach wild speculative theories based on his history. Let the project speak for itself, not the person behind it. There's no way in hell the real satoshi would "cave in" and seek the spotlight, in my opinion. Especially since he took great pains to conceal himself in the first place.

It is quite difficult for me to believe he is Satoshi Nakamoto. These two people have total different personality.
