Student With Question (Non-Target)

I’ve noticed a trend that genuinely confuses me, and I’d appreciate a little color on it. Is it normal for a banker to say they’ll refer me to other people and then ghost me? I followed up, and for added context, they were the ones who mentioned the referrals before I even asked. No hard feelings, I just want to understand if it’s something I need to improve on.
