Although this man may be real, everything about him is pathetic and most likely fraudulent. Guys resume includes:

1) Shift supervisor at Subway for under 2 years. 2) Tour Guide at Alcatraz for under 2 years. 3) Sales rep at Purina Mills for under 3 years.

Then it gets fishy...

He says he's the founder and CEO of Van der Horst holdings... Which after some googling is most likely made up as any company with that name is not based in San Francisco and has existed for minimum 11 years, meaning there's no way he's the founder/CEO if he's only been working there for 11 months. Even the link to the company in his profile goes nowhere.

He's a fraud. Plain and simple. Chances are this "encounter" never happened and he's just trying to inflate his image to impress.

Either way I reported him to LinkedIn for being a fraud :) Feel free to do the same!
