The pro-MAGA & #qanon account @surfermom77 outed the whistleblower by name in a tweet & then President Trump preceded to retweet the surfermom77 tweet on Saturday ... effectively further outing the whistleblower to his 68 million followers bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
The surfermom77 account has morphed & repackaged itself numerous times & the @mikefarb1 thread does a good job documenting that. Although not in our #Hamilton68 or #the200 lists, we will document a number of other interesting things about this surfer mom.
One small comment about @mikefarb1 thread, we need 2b careful about interchanging GRU accounts with IRA trolls. They r & function very differently. GRU typically don't run high volume, influential social media accounts. The paid grunts do that (IRA trolls)
Okay, looking through our almost 3 yrs of archives the surfermom77 account comes up alot and was for example mentioned in a Roger Stone tweet in September of 2016. Note the other accounts including in this tweet. Only @/WenMaMa2 is still live. #disinfo #infosec
The surfermom77 accnt also shows up in a python script we found that was used 2 push out automated Pro-Trump tweets in 2016. We're still trying 2 decipher the script & who's behind it. It contained some of the same accnts as the Roger Stone one & a very prominent #the200 account
The surfermom77 account was retweeted or mentioned dozens of times by now suspended Russian IRA accounts like @emileewaren @patriotblake and @ameliebaldwin to name a few. #disinfo #russiantrolls
The surfermom77 account was retweeted or mentioned dozens of times by now suspended Kremlin-aligned #Hamilton68 accounts like @JoanneColombo #disinfo #russiantrolls #infosec
The surfermom77 account has featured prominently as an influencer account in a number of high profile trending hashtags like #racistdebramessing which apparently sought to troll @DebraMessing and frequently tweets out #qanon conspiracy content. #disinfo #russiantrolls #infosec
Interestingly as I did this thread & went through the different groups ..it appeared that the now deleted @JohnTDolan account almost always appeared along with @surfermom77 in many of the older important tweets. No idea the significance & we make no attribution #disinfo #infosec
Anyone else seeing this for the @surfermom77 account? #infosec
Yup she has repackaged again. Its now Leona @4shereene4
I wonder in her haste to repackage, she meant to say #Trump2020Landslide instead of #Trump2020landslid? The Godless anti-americans is a nice touch though.
So here's the side by side. Other than gaining 3700 new followers in the past couple of days they are identical. The hidden twitter user ID is the clincher. Cant say Ive ever seen a troll account do a handle change right in the middle of one of my threads though. Rookie move IMHO
Apparently I missed a couple of changes just 2day. According to @dcolapinto she went from @surfermom77 to @2Samson67 to @2Leona65 before @4Shereene4. A paid domestic troll who doesn't want 2 lose their cash cow but is not experienced enough 2 know hidden Twitter ID never changes?
So this cat and mouse game is getting kinda of silly ... especially when an RFID chip is implanted in the mouse (Twitter user ID). I have other things to deal with but here is the the latest handle change for surfermom77 now LovelyGigi33
