    No #FakeNews on this one. I've gotten several random offers through Linkedin in the last couple of months to talk confidential material with people in Asia. It kinda surprised me how brazen it was with both the $$$ and not even hiding what they were looking for.

    I think the wording on the last one was something like substantial consulting fees per hour for a several hour phone conference for their clients who would like to know more about X and Y (my current industry/employer).

    Never responded to any of them so never got more detailed than that.
