Suspected sockpuppets

The quacking seems loud with this one. On Richard Attias, each editor is an WP:SPA, and all are focussed solely on the addition of PR material with the intentio of promoting the subject. User:Richardattiasassociates (now blocked at UAA) was created on 27 June 2016 at 20:06- edits here. The User:Sebianes reinserted exactly the same material (here); that account was created 28 June 2016 at 15:05). Most recently, User:Dams92210 was created today at 29 June 2016 at 08:50; he also inserted the same material. Checkuser requested to attempt to discover whether this is actual socking or 'only' meatpuppetry, as it is likely that one or all of these editors are employed in a PR capacity by the article subject.

 * Richardattiasassociates and Sebianes are ✅.
 * Dams92210 is ❌.
 * I am not blocking Sebianes. The soft username block of the master entitled them to create a new account. Based on the technical evidence, that’s all they did. Therefore, a block for sock puppetry would be wrong. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:26, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
