Let's not require a person to "out" themselves before we consider their information legit.

Rather, let's reach out to our colleagues at Amazon and see if we can reach a recruiter. It shouldn't be hard to do.

I'm not asking that the person out themselves. I meant more information about the sender - I could quickly code up an email template that looks similar to Amazons.

This is my very good friend and I promise this is legit

I have a very good friend in Amazon recruiting that says this has to be Photoshopped because Amazon doesn’t do that.

No, that’s not true. But I’ve got a ton of karma on HN, I post frequently, and there’s contact info in my profile. Who are people going to believe if I didn’t put a disclaimer here? Not that I don’t believe you, but I’m not inclined to believe some random person on the internet who has posted to this forum for the first time. IOW, many of us are waiting for something better than, “it’s true, really”.

This is your first comment in 1.75 yrs and we have no reason to trust you; your testimonial is unconvincing, unfortunately.

Fair, I added some more identifying information to my profile so you know that I'm a real person.
