That sounds like a very odd explanation, if indeed that is the way that they
described it.  "I don't want to tell you what I do for a living because I would
have to admit that I'm a burglar."

It seems to me that statement like that could provide "probable cause" (or
whatever the correct term is) for a patent holder to get a court order to have
those guys checked out for patent violations.
