Description

The email reached me through my website form that I have. This is the email they sent below. Also some other information I found. Also, from right clicking on "get info" for inspecting the the document titled "Chess.com Onboarding Documentation..............pdf" (which was a pdf) they sent me through Telegram, which they went by the user "@onlinechessgame1", I read through, and in the "author tag" it was labeled "Ademuyiwa Jay Wit". I further looked into my google analytics on my website, and within the "Demographics Details: Country:" section I had a single hit report come back from "Nigeria" on "Friday January 5, 2023 ", which was the exact day the email that came in from my form field. I then did a search on google for that first name and a facebook profile shows up as the first result. This is the profile "https://www.facebook.com/ademuyiwa.tobi.35/". His info in his facebook profile is "Worked at Self-Employed" and "Lives in Lagos, Nigeria". This may not be the person, but this information, I hope might be helpful. _________START OF EMAIL & EMAIL INFORMATION_________ First Name: Ashley Last Name: King Email: [email protected] Message Field: Chess.com is seeking a UX designer with an emphasis on clear, clean, and fun interactions.
