Where are you from?

Can't you discern that those speakers were Anglophones? And native at that?

Please don't get me wrong, it is helpful indeed, but you cannot confuse them as native.

I am a Spanish native speaker. I sure can help somewhat with English accent to other Spanish speakers, but I would never, not with my actual accent anyway, to a native English speaker. :-)
