Student has the same name as his lecturer, he’s acting the maggot with it

Have you ever sent an email or text message to the wrong person because their name was so similar to the person that you originally intended?

One student at the University of West Scotland is reveling in the fact that he often gets caught up in a case of mistaken identity because he has the same name as his lecturer and he’s using this stroke of luck to wind up other people in the college.

Mark McKenna is currently studying sports coaching at college, but because of this naming coincidence , he frequently gets emails that were intended for the lecturer.

Rather than clear up the issue or forward any emails onto the correct Mark McKenna, he’s having some fun.

He made a rookie mistake by publishing this news on Twitter though. If that was me, I’d keep it a secret and see what I could get away with for as long as possible.
