Multi decade angel investor here: accredited investor requirements are completely normal, including the good faith clause.

You gave it away there: "angel investor .. accredited investor requirements" You're in a different ballgame.

The other responders here are wondering if someone can get into that ballgame without all the safeguards you went through.

Also an angel investor. Nobody actually checks accredited investor status [1], but early stage investments are so risky you'll have to invest $X x Y investments at an amount so large it's difficult for most people to do safely.

[1] Angellist did actually check for this, though it only required screenshots of account balances.
