Just a bit more news on this - Apparently he did have a commercial licence years ago for small aircraft.

The strange thing is that he was able to keep up the charade for so many years. He must have passed a lot of checkrides along the way, which means he was doing something right at least.

At least he didn't say "I learned it all from Microsoft" ;)
