As part of another project, I created a "
Multi-Account-Scanner" to find different ways to spot duplicate accounts.
I had the idea to compare sleep/inactive times and posting histories to find patterns between users using my own algorithm. I don't know if this is enough on its own an wanted to share with you guys.
Ok i know, of course it could be a coincidence, but if you look at the screenshots (which I blurred for now), you can see several strange patterns. Atm this screenshots show members from just two campaigns that I compared to each other. This means everyone shown is a participant in one of two campaigns:
Registration Dates: The accounts were
created very close to each other.
Activity & Idle Times: Their posting
times and breaks match in a suspicious way.
Posting Intervals: The
time between posts suggests maybe that one person has multiple browser tabs open and switches between accounts, causing short delays of just a few minutes.
Funfact: When looking closely at some of the posts, a lot of them seem to be AI-generated (i think AI-Detector will not say so) because they contain nonsense or generic filler content.
Because of this, I could bet that there is a bot in use, using AI to control these accounts automatically or letting a human post automatically at the click of a button.
I think of this, bc a frequent pattern stands out - an account really often quotes a post and replies with a short 3-line response. I noticed this across a few accounts, which suggests an automated process where AI generates replies to quoted content. YES, this is just my theory, but it seems possible.
What is your opinion on this? Could so many coincidences really happen at once? Or are these enough clues to investigate further and reveal their names? What shoul I do?This are just examples and I can say that if I add more campaigns, I promise I will find many more accounts.
