He asked if he could send me a non disclosure agreement and if I could sign and send it back to him. I will leave his industry out but he wanted to meet with me because he was opening a new manufacturing plant. His non compete had run out and he was going into business for himself. I had Facebook at the time and was always very careful to keep notification, location services, access to mics, cameras and anything I could find turned off.
We met at my local office to review the project so that I could start working on the design of the storage and warehouse. Our meeting was about 2 hours. I had no previous contact with this person and had not even added him to my contacts at this point. I get home from the meeting and open up Facebook. A friend suggestion popped up and it was him. Our meeting with private and there were two people on the planet that knew we were meeting. Pulse Facebook. Talk about feeling like my privacy had been violated.
I ended up closing my account a month later for that and other reasons. I can't tell you how much happier I am without that distraction.

I'm absolutely 100% NOT SURPRISED at this. This tech is insidious and intrusive.
