I have never been asked anything like that, except when it was for legal compliance (such as opening a bank account).
The only exception being meta a decade ago, to which I obviously answered by deleting anything meta related bar Whatsapp.
- sangnoir 3y agoWith how AI is going, attestation will become necessary for many social interactions we take for granted today by assuming there is a well-intended human in the other end. If you're hiring, or looking for a new job, the odds of you being tricked/phished are getting worse by the day. I've read stories of employees get interviewed for fake jobs as a long-con to get banking details, and employers interviewing a persona that's fronting an offshore dev team, or people who don't have work skills and aim to pick up paychecks until their dismissal is processed.
