Suspected sockpuppets

Obvious block evasion. RudraSinghs created 17 August, and blued their user page. Only edits so far are recreation today of spammy Namaste Henry at Draft:Namaste Henry, last created by sock User:द्वारा. Wikishovel (talk) 20:04, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Adding obvious sock Driftytone, created 31 August. On 1 September, recreated Draft:Hacktivist Vanguard. Wikishovel (talk) 21:01, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Driftytone also twice tried to hijack Tariq Khan (actor), logged in and logged out [1], [2]. Compare with Draft:Tariq Khan (Indian actor), created by glocked User:Ajmal Sheiks, after that account was indeffed at Simple WP along with User:Hafzal Murbani, User:Abudulasheikers, User:Ninja Kattori and User:Ahmer Haider.

Thanks DoubleGrazing. Prozone77 also added more of the usual rubbish-sourced puffery about Hacktivist Vanguard's supposed activities. Now that Driftytone is glocked, he's currently busy over at Hausa Wikipedia, where also created ha:Zero Defend Security, "a security technology company from India founded by Santhosh Kumar". Yes, "Zero Defend Security", more of that pure marketing genius from the guy who brought you Cyber Crime Break. Wikishovel (talk) 16:08, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
