I've been coding for over 20 years now! (WOAH, do I feel old)
I've touched just about every resource imaginable under the Sun (too bad they were bought out by Oracle)
I wasn't listed at all. That's the scary part. It listed my business name along with this other person's personal details. If I search for other email addresses I've used in the past, it finds me, but my primary email address from the past 10 years or so displays this entirely different person.
Additionally, the email address in question is @ my own domain name, so there should be absolutely zero confusion, because I'm the only person in the entire world with an email address with this domain.
Wow that's really weird. I'm curious to know what kind of algorithm they use to match people with their emails, and what caused this kind of confusion. It must have been a little frightening to see someone else come up when you search me@mydomain.com though lol.

The other person has a similar real name, that's it. But anyone building a site like that SHOULD know how common duplicate names are though! hahahahahaaa
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
