come across over???

What does "come across over" mean? I found it in this sentence: "He comes across over as an honest person." I tried to look it up earlier but had no results. Help me!

This seems to be a mix of two idioms. He comes across as an honest person. He comes over as an honest person.

"Come across as" and "Come over as" mean to give a specified impression. It should be "He comes across/over as an honest person".
