Haha I had the exact same interview experience, the candidate was named Connor Wood, from Austin, TX. I actually told them we couldn't continue the interview unless they turned on their webcam. Cut to a meek east asian man in a dimly lit room. Are you sure you're the Connor Wood that played on the UT Austin Lacrosse team?? LOL I don't know how they expected that ruse to work.
TBH if they paid me €2 million I'd easily play the role of being a trustworthy white guy on fake interviews. And I'm sure that others would be convinced to do the same thing for much less.
