I just found out something which is pretty sad, pathetic and a little disturbing.
Apparently an ex-employer is using my name to get business, and I left 3 years ago. They are using my name in proposals I would assume as the lead designer since they don't hire anybody with over 2 years of experience and no one stays for more than 4 months it seems. Even the other partners couldn't take his crap anymore and left that place before I did. Looks like they need to put someone in there with some credible experience and some seniority.
They have struggled since I left it apparently.
What to do... what to do... the guy running that place is literally unstable and mentally ill, and spent my last year in there threatening me to sue me for anything imaginable. One of the last things he said in my last few hours there was "if you ever do anything to us or take a client with you, I'll come after you and sue your ass motherf*****".
Don't think a polite and straight-forward email would solve anything. And quite frankly and I don't want anything to do with them anymore. Went through the worse time of my life during my stay there and 3 years ago I decided to quit and put that experience behind and never remember it.

- A friend knows someone who received this Proposal a few days ago. This someone recognized my name and asked my friend why my name was there.VectorMasked
- This proposal is a private document, but I still asked my friend if he could ask that someone to send me the proposal or at least the pages where I am in.VectorMasked
- I'd take that as a compliment but definitely would call Saul and tell him all about it.bklyndroobeki
- What do you guys think at the fact that I am currently residing at another country for another year or two? So dealing with this might be a little difficult.VectorMasked
- Explicitly state on your website that you've left that company (via resume or bio)
They're probably googling you to see your work anyway.bklyndroobeki
