Transcribed by hand on 27 September 2026 from a post the scraper cannot read because Medium answers it with a bot check. The post walks a cluster of GitHub accounts that follow and star one another. It states that techlover9922, received from another researcher, was verified by the author as a North Korean fake profile; the rest it calls suspicious, and it says no malware delivery was found. Only four of the roughly thirty accounts it names are carried here: techlover9922 on the author's own verification, and geektalent1010, DevHawkNov and uniwaydev because their follow graphs, checked on 27 September 2026, connect them to accounts this site already indexes from other reporting (geektalent1010 follows kamaalsultan and supercomet329 and is followed by uniwaydev and bitcrusher1023; DevHawkNov is followed by forest410, popstar7 and thinkingdev9 and follows dreamsoft07). The others rest on the post's graph reasoning alone, several present as real developers, and one X account the post names is the person being impersonated, so they are not carried.
