They're (probably) trying to establish cred and judge the veracity of the source. Because they don't know rep.
Yes, this. It's a somewhat common spoiler ho practice, if someone brings a spoiler to ask, "Can you tell me where you read that," or "link please" or something. But it is also common practice to say, "I can't say." It is not rude to not provide your reason. "Rep" or anything, including a refusal to answer, should suffice.
It is rude for the person who was asking to press the issue. It's kind of a complicated thing, because lots of the good spoiler sources don't want their spoilers repeated off of their site, but lots of the foilers originate with delusional fans.

They have the right to ask, but not the right to be convinced.
Hey, was that okay what I posted in Minearverse? I felt like it needed restated, but if what I stated wasn't quite what our policy is currently, let me know and I'd be glad to edit.
I thought it was right. . . based on my vague understanding of our policy.
Although, I must admit that I'm not sure that "When come back, bring tape" fits the policy anymore.
I think the line, sumi, is between aired and unaired eps. But it's something we'd best be ready to explain at the drop of a hat.

What Liese said was specifically about the unaired eps, which people have bought and are burning copies of. WCBBT is "I missed last week's ep, who has a copy?"
