The "Lockridge Senior High School", listed in LinkedIn as Scott Bibby's high
school, appears to have real web presence.  While the website is small and
does not have a list of alumni, it seems plausible, and it is in a domain
controlled by Australian government, with appropriate WHOIS data.  Thus, it
seems legit.

Similarly, "Heavenly Perfumes" has reasonable web presence for a company
selling mail order fragrances over the Internet.  There's a notable anomaly,
however.  Scott Bibby is supposedly a "director" of Heavenly Perfumes, and
its "About Us" section says it is a "family-owned" business with three
employees.  One would think there's a Bibby family behind it, but I was
unable to confirm it.

In summary, the weak links are where the high school or the fragrance
company would link back to Mr. Bibby.  Bibby's name and Heavenly Perfume's
name only appear together in foreign 'yellow pages' or linkage websites,
which may mean that they're created externally (and thus possibly fake), or
that Bibby has been populating the yellow pages websites on behalf of
Heavenly Perfumes.  This state of affairs is actually consistent with the
hypothesis that Mr. Bibby is fictional, and that his supposed life events
refer to randomly picked entities of some geographical proximity.  But it's
not conclusive, and the available evidence is also consistent with the
hypothesis that Mr. Bibby is real.

P. S.  When snooping around like this, please be sure to use Google Cache,
and refrain from actually contacting web servers likely to be under control
of Mr. Bibby.
