Who is Soham Parekh? Engineer goes viral on X after startup scam allegations

Soham Parekh, an Indian engineer, is at the centre of a major online storm after being accused of scamming startups in the US. Several startup founders claim that Parekh secretly worked at multiple companies at the same time, without telling anyone. This controversy has now gone viral on X (formerly Twitter) and raised serious questions about remote work hiring practices in tech. Soham Parekh Allegedly Worked for Multiple Startups According to the claims, Soham Parekh was involved with three to five startups at the same time, many of them backed by top investors like Y Combinator. These allegations suggest he misled startups by taking up roles across several tech firms, a serious breach of trust in the startup ecosystem. The matter gained attention when Suhail Doshi, founder of Playground AI and former CEO of Mixpanel, posted a strong public warning on X. He wrote, 'PSA: There's a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3–4 startups at the same time. He's been preying on YC companies and more. Beware.' PSA: there's a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3-4 startups at the same time. He's been preying on YC companies and more. Beware.I fired this guy in his first week and told him to stop lying / scamming people. He hasn't stopped a year later. No more excuses. I want to also say that I tried to talk sense into this guy, explain the impact, and give him a chance to turn a new leaf because sometimes that's what a person needs. But it clearly didn't work. Doshi also revealed that he fired Soham Parekh within the first week for scamming startups and lying about his employment. He added that Parekh had continued this behaviour despite being warned to stop. Founders from Other Startups Also Spoke Out After Doshi's post, several other startup leaders came forward with similar stories. Flo Crivello, founder of Lindy, said Parekh was hired just a week before and was immediately fired after learning about his background. Nicolai Ouporov, CEO of Fleet AI, claimed Parekh had been doing this for years. Matthew Parkhurst, CEO of Antimetal, called him 'smart and likeable,' but admitted they had to let him go for working with multiple companies at once. Michelle Lim, Head of Product at Warp, said their team cancelled Parekh's trial project after the scandal broke out. All these voices confirm that Soham Parekh was accused of scamming startups across the tech industry. Fake Resume and Doubts About Employment History Probably 90% fake and most links are gone. Doshi also shared what he said was Soham Parekh's CV, which listed well-known companies such as Dynamo AI, Union AI, Synthesia, and Alan AI. However, he claimed that 90% of the resume was probably fake, further adding to the scam allegations. The case raises serious concerns about how remote hiring works and whether proper background checks are being done in the tech space. Soham Parekh's Private Response Raises Eyebrows Although Soham Parekh has not spoken publicly, he reportedly sent a private message to Doshi. In the message, he wrote: Soham has reached out. His primary question:'Asking this as genuine advice since I do really love what I do, have I completely sabotaged my career? What can I do to improve my situation? I am also happy to come clean'Vox Populi, Vox Dei 'Have I completely sabotaged my career? What can I do to improve my situation? I am also happy to come clean.' This message shows that he may now regret his actions, but the damage seems to be done. Funny Yet Sharp Reactions on X Social media users reacted with humour and sarcasm to the news. Here are a few popular posts: @pathikghugare joked, 'Woke up with fever and cold... it's over for me y'all... Soham Parekh please don't take my job 🙏' @Abhi5043 wrote, 'I'm pretty sure if Jose Mourinho was a tech CEO, he would have already hired Soham Parekh by now.' @kunalvg said, 'Every crypto marketer has been Soham Parekh at some point in their career.' The posts show how viral and relatable this issue has become in the tech and startup world. What This Means for Startups and Remote Work The Soham Parekh startups scam controversy has become a cautionary tale for the startup community. It highlights the risks of remote hiring without proper background checks. Startups must now be extra careful when recruiting, especially in a remote-first tech culture. While Soham Parekh is yet to make an official statement, his story has sparked a larger conversation about trust, ethics, and employment transparency in the startup world. Whether he comes clean or not, this episode will likely affect how startups hire remote workers in the future. To stay updated on the stories that are going viral, follow Indiatimes Trending.

Indian techie accused by 5 US CEOs of scamming startups: What did he do?

At least five CEOs of US-based companies have warned startups against an Indian techie, accusing him of being a 'scammer'. Reason - the techie, Soham Parekh, had been moonlighting multiple firms. The issue was first highlighted by Suhail Doshi, the co-founder and former CEO of Mixpanel, who said that Parekh had been scamming multiple startups by working there simultaneously under false pretences. In a post on X, Doshi revealed that Parekh had been employed briefly at his company, Playground AI, but was let go within a week due to his dishonest behaviour. Doshi said he had cautioned Parekh to stop moonlighting at multiple companies but found that his warning was ignored. Despite being fired, Doshi claims that Parekh continued to take on multiple roles in different startups. 'PSA: there's a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3-4 startups at the same time. He's been preying on YC companies and more. Beware,' Doshi wrote. 'I fired this guy in his first week and told him to stop lying/scamming people. He hasn't stopped a year later. No more excuses.'

No more excuses. — Suhail (@Suhail) July 2, 2025 Ex-employee's CV shared by Doshi To substantiate his claims, Doshi posted Parekh's CV on X, which listed his work at various startups, including Dynamo AI, Union AI, Synthesia, and Alan AI, in technical roles. Parekh's CV claims a bachelor's from the University of Mumbai and a master's from Georgia Tech, but Doshi cast doubt on the document's legitimacy, saying it was 'probably 90 per cent fake'. Doshi also mentioned that he had tried to have a conversation with Parekh in an attempt to make him understand the impact of his actions. 'I want to also say that I tried to talk sense into this guy, explain the impact, and give him a chance to turn a new leaf because sometimes that's what a person needs. But it clearly didn't work,' Doshi explained. He further confirmed that he had corroborated his story with more than six companies before deciding to make his accusations public. 'He's been doing this for years' The post sparked debate on social media, with many supporting Doshi's claims and some confirming similar experiences with Parekh. Nicolai Ouporov, co-founder and CEO of Fleet AI, added to the conversation by saying, 'He has been doing this for years and works at more than 4 startups at any given time.' Justin Harvey, co-founder of AIVideo, shared, 'I was THIS close to hiring him. The craziest part is he actually crushed the interview.' Another startup founder, Adish Jain, confirmed, 'Can confirm. This guy wasted our time for a month. did great in interviews. but he's a liar.' Matthew Parkhurst, CEO of Antimetal, said 'Soham was our first engineering hire in 2022. Really smart and likable... We realized pretty quickly that he was working at multiple companies and let him go.' Adish Jain, founder of San Francisco-based Mosaic, also confirmed Doshi's account. According to him, Parekh did 'great' in interviews, but "he's a liar". Michelle Lim, product head at Warp, said Parekh had been hired for a trial but the engagement was cancelled after allegations surfaced.
