Exactly right, the idea that the caller somehow was 'hoodwinking' MW is as thin as everything else MW has tried to put forth. It won't hold up. It's clear the guy on the call had offered the caller a job in exchange for her information, was now claiming that he and his boss no longer worked for the fictitious company that was soliciting the information from her, and he was now supposedly going to help her hide her tracks - and his.
Muddy Waters is clearly implicated in this, Herb's theory has a half-life of about two days, IMO.
