Yesterday, we mentioned that Anna Chapman, one of the ten Russian spies arrested by the Justice Department on Tuesday, had noted spending time working at Barclays as a “slave.” Almost immediately, the bank informed us that they have never even heard of this lady, and that there was no way in hell she’s ever worked for them. Such is apparently not so much the case! Today we’ve been told:

Bess,

We have updated information. While we have no record of an Anna Chapman working at Barclays Capital, a wider search found that an Anna Chapman worked in the Small Business section of Barclays Retail bank in a similar time period. Sorry for any confusion. We got updated information and I wanted to let you know.

Meaning this chick is kinda trustworthy! In related news, we’re still waiting for more intel on whether or not she did indeed have her ass tapped by Dr. Doom during her time in the states.

    Confidentially, we really don’t keep track of who works for us and who doesn’t at any given time. We have more of an “open door” policy.

    I did some work at Wells Fargo in my past. They were out of paper and so it was a bit awkward.

    Sounds like the Russian hacker network tied up some loose ends on Barclay’s computers last night.

    Ahh, she “worked for” Warren Buffett! And how about this for a reference credit, “a financial gossip website.”

    http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard/article-23850871-femme-fatale-russian-spy-has-links-with-london.do

    MI5 probes London ‘spy’ links of Russian femme fatale

    “Investigators are understood to be checking reports that one of the ring used a British passport to travel to and from the US. Ms Chapman is believed to have worked in the capital from 2003 and today a private plane hire firm confirmed that she had worked for them for a short period.

    A spokesman for NetJets Europe said she had been employed at its Kensington office as an executive assistant in the sales department from May to July 2004.”

    and

    “A financial gossip website quotes one observer saying: “Saw Roubini and Anna Chapman at a party in Chelsea couple of weeks ago. Warm, familiar conversation between the two; allusions to dates, frequently being together, etc.” ”

    and fyi:

    “Suspicion may have fallen on Ms Chapman in America because her father was a senior Russian diplomat, it was claimed in Moscow today.
    Sources in Moscow say her father Vasily Kuschenko was a leading Russian envoy, serving in Africa where it is claimed he was ambassador to Kenya when she was around 13 or 14 years old.”
