I know accounts cannot be tied to IPs however given the fact that this editor is continuing to flip flop (see under heading "paid editing") about being a paid editor, I find it concerning that this IP has suddenly shown up to edit and submit the article that they're "no longer being paid for" (or rather, expected to be paid once it's in mainspace if I had to guess.) This seems very duckish. Praxidicae (talk) 12:26, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
It does seem suspicious. The IP makes it's edits in a gap of edits by Cherryy23. However, the edit summaries by the IP and what the IP does counteracts this for me: Because of what I have listed above, I feel that I cannot decide if the IP is a different person who now has control of the project or whether this is a well disguised attempt to avoid scrutiny by Cherryy23. I will leave for another clerk, CU, or patrolling administrator to deal with. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me &#124; my contributions 16:56, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * The use of edit summaries consistently (unlike Cherryy23, who rarely uses edit summaries).
 * The edits summaries suggesting to me that this is a different user (i.e. Removed information about product range. Unnecessary. suggests to me that a different person thinks the information added by Cherryy23 is Unnecessary. See Special:Diff/936050792)
 * Cherryy23 at 10:02 saying that the [p]roject is taken away from me. Special:Diff/936041804
 * Cherryy23 and are ✅, blocked and tagged. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:02, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
