> his account on our portal mentions Synack as his affiliation
Can someone clarify exactly what portal is referred to here? Is it something besides https://www.facebook.com/whitehat/report/ https://www.facebook.com/whitehat/report/ ?
If not, this is a totally bogus excuse.
- mod 11y agoMy gathering from the researcher's post is that facebook requires you to use a personal account. I'm guessing he just had his employer listed on his fb account.
- latkin 11y agoSeems that way, but I wanted to invite anyone who knows more to comment. Alex's response uses extremely misleading language to justify the employer contact: - "account on our portal mentions Synack as his affiliation" amounts to nothing more than "he lists his job on his facebook profile" - "he has interacted with us using a synack.com email address" -- OP claims otherwise. Taking OP's word, the use of "has" perhaps prevents this from being an outright lie: yes, as of *right now* he "has" used a synack.com email. But did he before you reached out? - "he has written blog posts that are used by Synack for marketing purposes" -- ... and? What does that have to do with anything? "He listed an employer on his fb profile" is literally their top justification for the supposed belief he was acting on their behalf. Yikes.
