[Thread]1/ Important announcement. There is a Twitter account that is continually changing its Twitter handle spreading disinformation. At the moment, it is @Qatar_Press_Net but over the past 2 days, it has been known as @Qatar_Poost, @qatre_shek & @Qatar_hawks #disinformation
2/ The account maintains the same user ID, which stays fixed even if you change your handle. It has been spreading mostly false videos claiming a coup in Qatar (it gets a lot of RTs). Its bio also changes, but mostly relates to claiming to 'liberate Qatar'. It has 62k+ followers
3/ Quick tip, if you wonder if an account has changed its name, but don't have their Twitter user id - which you can get from gettwitterid.com scroll down their timeline for an old post - see if anyone replied to it - chances are their old handle will be there. See vid
4/ Update: Qatari Twitter guru @Ql979 noted back in April that the aforementioned accounts @Qatar_Press_Net has had other, previous identities: @fconxzero and @SGA_ALTHANI
