Is this creepy?

So my boyfriends old friend has messaged me. Rn my boyfriend and i are separated but we are the only ones that know. His friend no longer lives in the state we reside and moved two weeks ago. My boyfriend talked about me to him a few times. He denies ever knowing my boyfriend. He basically messaged me and tells me he's looking for some trustworthy people. He asked me over and over if he could trust me because he hates snitches. whatever that means.
Is this creepy?
