So much activity on the same day seems mighty coincidental.

Very likely an alt ring from olkah, or purchased merit from it.

Check their untrusted feedback and feedback of some other accounts, you will get the picture
Very likely bunch of sockpuppets exchanging trust and merit.

It's really not easy to earn merit points even with good content because people with merits don't think its necessary even when they have extra merit points.

In my view there are some incentive also for giving merits, if anyone gives merits to low-quality post then he will be punished by losing some of his existing merits points and if he give merits to high-quality post that is helpful for people then he must get a reward for this as well.

Makes sense. Poor guy tried to earn merit in March, but it was so hard, people did not want to merit him because they didn't find it necessary, so he patiently waited, but there was this other thing on his mind.

Best way to earn is By Joining Bounty campaigns and promote them in a social network.

And so his patience run out.

Most likely  ziyush is a alt of olkah accordingly untrusted feedback although there is no clear evidence.

However look like ziyush has tagged for other reason and I don't think need tag again for merit abuse. Already his account useless. No doubts they have abused merit system by meriting on ANN thread. That's was the reason I was asked to disable merit from ANN and bounty section. Also I have opened lots of similar case directly merited with 50 on single thread.

Yeah he received the positive feedbacks as well on the same day the merits being circulated. Plus the feedbacks really didn't have any references on why he deserved to have 10 from olkah reptitively. Well tagging him now for another problem would really seal his account as useless. It is better for a scammer to have +0/-2 rather than +0/-1 on his account so that other members see what the wrong thing he has done in the community.

Not much to checkout , 50 merit for a post for some ANN thread or some shit like that, means that the accounts are connected.
It is simple mathematics 1+1=2.
