Suspected sockpuppets



 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

This is an odd one. I noticed two new accounts being created and immediately making obviously connected spammy edits linking to ourtopten.net/top-ten-fastest-cars-in-the-world. The usernames looked to me to be a concatenation of two random words or names with no space between them and the second word not capitalized. A quick look through recent new accounts found two more such accounts linking to the same top ten website. The earliest account made its first edit to Website monetization discussing how to drive traffic to a web page before adding a link to ourtopten.net/top-10-ways-to-bring-traffic-to-your-website-blog-and-webpage-10-best-seo-tips/ It appears to me that these are all the same editor. Asking for CU since there may well me more accounts. I only went back two hours in the user creation log and there could be earlier ones, or ones I missed. Meters (talk) 05:04, 30 July 2017 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments




I have found the following other accounts also spamming the same link and I will be endorsing a checkuser request here, however I have filed for a COIBot report to try to find other accounts first. When we have discovered the others then we will proceed with the endorsement. — Berean Hunter   (talk)  14:54, 30 July 2017 (UTC) — Berean Hunter   (talk)  15:05, 30 July 2017 (UTC) — Berean Hunter   (talk)  15:10, 30 July 2017 (UTC)
 * - to confirm socking and block any remaining accounts. Akramjan is the oldest account (2013) so far but will wait for CU results before moving. Here is the spam report that shows the additions.
 * has blocked what appears to be the master and has deleted the article.

More:

Added by Akramjan. That does not lead to more accounts though. I will blacklist both domains. --Dirk Beetstra T C 15:14, 30 July 2017 (UTC) — Berean Hunter   (talk)  21:18, 30 July 2017 (UTC)
