Did they talk to your friends as references before the interview? Perhaps one of your friends casually mentioned it, without even meaning any harm.

- bluefirebrand 5y agoI like your thinking, given that people are a very common attack vector. I don't remember for certain, it was a few years ago. It's unlikely though. I don't give references by default and I am almost never asked for them. I don't recall if they asked for them, but I don't think so. Also the overlap of people who I share my online activity with and people I would use as professional references is extremely small. Maybe literally one person. It is probably something very small like accidentally linking an email address to an account I shouldn't have.
