Suspected sockpuppets

Both Cada mori and BrandyAlex belong to the same Elance Account will email the differences.Rosemaryujoh fails WP:DUCK clearly by editing Shunaid Qureshi page in her first edit which Cada mori wanted to delete.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 15:40, 3 May 2015 (UTC) I have emailed the Elance links to User:Vanjagenije[reply]

Note Cada mori nominates Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shunaid Qureshi for deletion and edits and removes content here later Rosemaryujoh comes and tries to get this removed in her first edit.Please refer to this This and further Brian F. Martin was done by paid editor found socking later this job was given to Elance account of Cadi Mori/BrandyAlex Elance account clearly states individual.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 18:34, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Please note the User was clearly asked about Paid Editing by an admin which the user denies which is a clear violation of Terms of Use also clearly told by another admin about the Multiple accounts policy which again the user denies.Please note I can provide further evidence if required.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 00:05, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hilarious, let me know if there's anything I can do to help the investigation progress. Cada mori (talk) 19:04, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tiptoety, I can confirm that there is evidence connecting the Cada mori and BrandyAlex accounts. I currently have only limited internet access, so it will be a day or two before I'm back online, but I'll send along what I can when I get access again. - Bilby (talk) 19:25, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Good luck with the investigation! Cada mori (talk) 16:50, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • CheckUser requested - Self-endorsed by clerk for checkuser attention - To compare BrandyAlex to Cada mori. Pharaoh of the Wizards sent me an e-mail with links ans screenshots from Elance.com that show that those two are probably the same person. The connection of Rosemaryujoh to the other two is not explained properly. I also do not see any evidence concerning the IP (4.15....). Vanjagenije (talk) 18:20, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  On hold - I have encountered Elance sock accusations before, which resulted in a determination that the Elance account was an imposter. The Elance account was subsequently closed. We must tread lightly when running checks/investigating cases involving Elance and accusations of paid editing. Pharaoh of the Wizards, will you please email whatever additional evidence you have to the functionaries mailing list? The address can be found here. Thank you, Tiptoety talk 01:12, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please remember  CheckUser is not magic pixie dust, but that said, BrandyAlex (talk · contribs) & Cada mori (talk · contribs) are  Technically indistinguishable. From a purely technical standpoint, Rosemaryujoh (talk · contribs) appears Red X Unrelated, but it is possible they are using a very dynamic set of IPs, and possible even webhosts. Tiptoety talk 02:22, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Cada mori and BrandyAlex  Blocked and tagged. I don't feel strongly enough about the behavioural evidence regarding Rosemaryujoh to block and I assume the private evidence did not present a solid case for that either (or Tiptoety would've likely acted on it / said as much). IP has been used less than half an hour almost a month ago, so no action to take there. ☺ · Salvidrim! ·  04:00, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets

[edit]

LebronJamesGOAT was created less than a week after the master was indeffed. They created Wolfie.com containing a logo uploaded by the master on commons: [1].

Same pattern with Luminescens: logo upload by the master and article creation.

While the master is stale and these are obvious DUCKS, I request CU on LebronJamesGOAT in order to see whether there are other accounts lurking. SmartSE (talk) 10:40, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sro23: Please reconsider. As I said the accounts listed are DUCKs to the master-I have already evaluated their behaviour. Given the history of the master there is a high likelihood that other accounts exist but where there is no crossover with the master. We don't need two accounts to CU only a reasonable suspicion that sockpuppetry is occurring. SmartSE (talk) 08:24, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This case is being reviewed by Sro23 as part of the clerk training process. Please allow them to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on their Talk page or on this page if more appropriate.

Hi can someone explain what is going on? Thanks! LebronJamesGOAT (talk) 02:43, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I just happened on this SPI. FWIW, a CU could run a check on one account, to see if it is related to other undiscovered users (a sleeper check). Not commenting on whether that is the appropriate course of action here since I haven't looked at the evidence. --Rschen7754 05:03, 18 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
