It's like a never-ending circle of just bouncing between fake emails. And that's where it just gets crazy. I'm trying to follow this weirdness of I can't trust anything. Everyone's fake. The person Andrew is talking to is not even Maris because Maris is just another impersonated individual. So I'm just really losing track of who's real or not.

P&D, I find their website because they just explained it in their Slack channel, a P&D design. I just start, you know, doing basic things, trying to figure out other websites P&D design built. I'm just trying to figure out who owns P&D design. I end up finding the person who owns it. I call them once or twice. No one ever picks up. I email them. No one ever responds. I don't know what to do.

I just wanted to talk to someone who was associated with P&D design and they just never respond to any of my reaching out. I don't remember if I put it in the blog post, but I called a lot of the numbers that were in the document that Andrew got from P&D. And those numbers were like these American embassies in foreign countries. I was like, this is crazy.

I was like, I don't even mean to call these numbers. And here I am thinking it's some official number for a business, and I'm calling embassies.

Yeah, and I think at the same time, I'm trying to behind all the websites that P&D Design built, and they had this weird obsession about disabling right-click. It seems like such an old technique to stop your right click. And I'm just like finding all these sites. And I think that they're in the hundreds of just all these sites disable right click.

They have the same Google Analytics ID and they have this weird footer where it's like, hey, we created it P&D design. But guess what? Our CEOs by CEO crunches and our ITs by IT tech fixes. And the design was via visible dev. And all these companies are P&D basically. Yeah.

He would write emails saying, Hey, this is going to sound extremely strange, but... I feel like I'm getting my identity something impersonate. I don't know how to explain it. But can you answer a simple question? Did a company PND design build your website? I thought it was a pretty simple ask.

Unfortunately, you know, some people told me some very just rough things like to just mind my own business, ignored me or refused to help me. Except for one guy that I think after I talked a few emails back and forth, understood I was a real person and then finally told me, yes, we had never worked with this company before.

So at this point, I'm realizing that I don't think I can trust a single thing that is going on in this Slack channel, in this email chain. And the story just continues to grow in these weird angles.

So at this point, I felt like I had done a good deal of research. I'd kind of tracked down who I thought was involved, what was going on, all thanks to Andrew kind of leaking this information to me and I think, holy cow, I have a lot of information to finish my blog post and make a presentation.
