One employee, Maria Parra, said that during her engagement with the imposter, the questions were strange and unlike any other real confessions she had previously experienced. The scheme was to find out about the so-called “sins” of the workers, meaning any intent or actions they might have taken to stand up for their rights; the company routinely violated the law in its dealings with employees.
