I didn't look just once, what I have is essentially a time lapse, with screenshots which I took every 15 seconds, roughly. If it turns out that someone at YC used even the flagging feature of their regular (non-mod) user account to manipulate this YC-owned forum for financial gain, then that could certainly be in Cybercrimes' jurisdiction, with the caveat being that it has to be inter-state to be in Federal jurisdiction. So this would only apply if one of the people conducting manipulation was located outside of California. .... Unless it can be argued that since OpenAI is legally in Delaware, that even a person based in California would meet the interstate criteria via the California-Delaware distinction.
Here's an example FBI case from their website that shares some similar overall features to what the crime would be, if there turns out to have been a crime. https://www.justice.gov/usao-wdwa/pr/two-new-yorkers-plead-guilty-scheme-bribe-amazon-employees-inside-information-and https://www.justice.gov/usao-wdwa/pr/two-new-yorkers-plead-g...
