And he responds and goes, yeah, I'm about to go to class. But here's a few log snippets of just a Slack channel.

And at this point, I'm actually just getting attached to this, because in the screenshot he sends me, he's talking about... the interview that's supposed to be in like a few hours time that I'm looking at of me that he is like, you know, no longer attending. And this is crazy because I'm also talking to a coworker next to me at this point. Like, should I join this interview? What is going on?

Like, I feel like someone is pretending to be me in an interview later today. And that is kind of crazy to think about.

Yeah, and I think that's what really kind of really sketched me out or made me feel a bit uneasy. Because at the end of the day, I thought, why not just make some AI generator random document if you're trying to go out there and get jobs? Connor still feels like he needs more details from Andrew. Something just isn't adding up still. I'm trying to actually email him a lot.

I'm saying like, hey, I need more info here. I dug deeper into this and it's more creepy than I thought. And I was like... Hey, what more can you give me? Can you give me all your email communications? Can you tell me more? And he was like, sorry, I'm going to class. And I was like, oh, so the person that's helping me through this is like no longer available. How did Andrew get involved in this?

He mentioned that he kind of just got cold emailed, like just a random email, presumably from his GitHub, where someone reached out and said they were looking for a partner to join him and needed a bit of development experience. And this was a guy that was kind of a fresh developer right out of school that was looking for a kind of place to work, and it seemed like a great chance.

So I think he continued moving forward with his employment. As they said, they needed a good English-speaking engineer. And he fit all those boxes. Andrew ends up joining this company. They get invited to a Slack channel. And the same day he joins a Slack channel, roughly a few hours later, he ends up getting just a bunch of messages.

Now, when Andrew joined this Slack chat, he was greeted by someone just named PND. This PND person, his acronym, ends up posting to Andrew and says, hey, you're going to pretend to be this person. And it's a link to that document that he ends up linking or kind of sharing to me.

And that's when Andrew realizes, I don't really want to be part of this because Connor looks like a kind of English-speaking engineer. Why am I pretending to be him? And Maris, I mean, Maris or the PND, we don't really know who this person is, says, yeah, Connor's not our engineer. Is that going to be a problem for you? And he says, yeah, that violates his ethical kind of behavior.

And Andrew just ends up leaving and taking a bunch of information with him. So I'm thinking to Andrew, this guy's amazing. Just leaked a bunch of information to me from this whole thing. And I guess lost a job in the process. Probably not the best job, but for someone looking for work, I guess a job was a job.
