Both accounts are using image uploads to spam car rental app URLs in file description. See File:Car rental app.png as one example from Usama58. File:Black Cool Car.png from Oliver251. Both accounts made small minor edits in order to gain the right to upload images. Whpq (talk) 01:11, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Added Kaiden25 who is doing the exact same thing. A series of minor edits to enable image upload followed by spamming a car rental URL in the file description of a car related image upload. See File:Elegant Jeep Sketch.png. -- Whpq (talk) 16:52, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Behaviourally, A and B are very similar to each other; given the technical evidence, would you consider it possible that they are operated by the same person? --Blablubbs&#124;talk 12:59, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Blablubbs - Technical evidence doesn't supersede behavioral evidence. Plus, it may be possible that there's VPN or proxy usage, though I didn't check. If they're behaviorally all the same and in an obvious way, I'd say yes. :-)  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   13:04, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, I mixed up my groups when checking before; there is a difference; group B does lots of minor useless coverup copyedits, group 1 just spams. I'll split the two and move this one. --Blablubbs&#124;talk 13:11, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Group B split to Sockpuppet investigations/Shayb27, moved this one to the oldest account; – please (re-)block everyone here and in the other SPI indefinitely. Thanks. --Blablubbs&#124;talk 13:14, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
