Review

From Chollima Hunter research, which flagged an applicant presenting as Phillip Gideon; read on 3 October 2026. Joined LinkedIn in September 2026 and presents Senior Software Engineer, Texas, with a University of Texas at Austin education, one connection and one follower. Its Verifications block reads identity verified using a government ID in September 2026, the month the account was made; the Kamil Toporek row in this file has the same shape, and a verification says LinkedIn accepted a document, not whose hands it was in. A GitHub account under the name, phillipgideon, was created in April 2025 and commits as phillip.gideon@dcisolution.com. The research gives phillipgideon847@gmail.com.
