ZachXBT published a table of the fake identities this operator ran, drawn from a device an unnamed source compromised. The post states five IT workers between them operated more than thirty identities, using purchased Upwork and LinkedIn accounts and government IDs to obtain developer jobs. THE VALUES BELOW WERE READ FROM THE SCREENSHOT IN THE POST, not from text: the table is an image and exists in no machine-readable form. Each was transcribed and checked against the image by a person, and the team designation is the source's own grouping, not an inference drawn here.
