I don't like it. I don't like going on a manhunt for no good reason.

Are they ex-employees who must be punished dearly?

Are they thiefs? Alleged thiefs? Being hassled by the company?

My guess is that they're friends of the company who volunteered for this.

Exactly my thought. Are these people on the Threadless hit list or something? And the fact that they avoided the question when someone asked...
