Mohsinkhaniamrealmohsin was blocked as a sockpuppet of Iamrealmohsin on Feb 11 for adding "Iamrealmohsin" to the Cast section of an article (diff). ALOKISBACK was created on Feb 13 and immediately made an almost-identical edit to the same article (diff). DanCherek (talk) 15:26, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

I don't have any prior knowledge of the sock accounts but this newly created account triggered the filter trying to perform edit on this SPI and has an obviously similar username as the sock AASIM786KHAN. So I'm requesting CU. Ashleyyoursmile! 16:17, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Intent on creating pages called "Iamrealmohsin" and adding that person to Satyameva Jayate 2 like previous sockpuppets, plus "786" in the username like AASIM786KHAN and Aasimkhan786786. DanCherek (talk) 16:01, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Edits to create and update Draft:Khan Mohsin are essentially the same as edits by the prior sock master/puppets, and I have blocked the above 3 users as such. cc: RoySmith SpencerT•C 17:13, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

- Spencer Looks good to me, thanks. Closing (but you could have done that yourself if you wanted). What happens now is this gets into the queue for somebody else to double-check and archive. Had you closed it yourself, I could have done that, but the closer and the archiver are supposed to be different people, just for quality control purposes. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:30, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- RoySmith do I just change the template at the top to {{SPI case status|close}} to close it? Thanks again for walking me through the process. SpencerT•C 18:46, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, you could do that. But even better would be to install User:GeneralNotability/spihelper, which automates a lot of these operations. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:50, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

More creating and editing of Draft:Real Mohsin and Draft:Iamrealmohsin ( Child Actor ) (note weird extra spacing). Same flaws as previous rejected drafts. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 06:26, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

Editor created Draft:I am real mohsin which was originally in main space before they moved it to Draft space which is how I came across it. I can't see that anyone else would want to write about this teenager. I'm asking for Checkuser as another sockpuppet was just identified a few days ago and this account was created in September.

- I guess I just wonder why a sockfarm would care about getting an article on Wikipedia about a teenager who pretends he's a movie star. I thought their typical subjects were wanna be internet celebrities, up and coming business people and small companies, not high schoolers. Seems like a campaign for a persistent 17 year old, not a sock farm. But, of course, I can't see the data. Thanks for checking! Liz Read! Talk! 06:40, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

- Clerk endorsed - seems obvious, but worth a check for other accounts. Interestingly, this account also created Draft:Juned Patel, which traces back to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Sadupatel/Archive. Whether they belong to this sockfarm or that sockfarm, or if it's all the same sockfarm, they're evading a global lock anyway. Spicy (talk) 15:23, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

- HeartTicker (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- I also note a Confirmed failed login to:
- Sadupatel (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- but as the login did not succeed, we cannot assume a technical confirmation to Sadupatel
- Techmangement is stale from Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Sadupatel/Archive, so unfortunately I can't assist you in more accurately linking this account to a master.
- Clerk assistance requested: - Behavioural evidence needs evaluation to ascertain which master is most likely. I have not yet blocked the account -- TNT (talk • she/they) 22:38, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Interesting. HeartTicker is blocked as compromised by Arshifakhan61, which is yet another spam sockfarm. Considering the general messiness of CU data in the area we're (presumably) dealing with, I'd lean towards not spending too much time trying to figure out who the real master is and just blocking the account without tags as an obvious spammer. I'll leave this open for input from other clerks, though. Spicy (talk) 06:28, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

Created Draft:Aasim khan, a draft about "Mohsin Khan" who purportedly starred in Satyameva Jayate 2, which is basically what all of the previous socks tried to push with their drafts. The "786" in the username matches several previous socks such as AASIM786KHAN, Aasimkhan786786, 786786mk, Aasimkhan7867khan86, and Ramram786786. Requesting CU as it has been helpful in the past in unearthing additional accounts and sleepers. DanCherek (talk) 05:25, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

- Same ISP and country as Zubermpatel (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki), fairly different geos (though the geolocation for this ISP isn't super-reliable), different devices, could mean either a device switch or meatpuppetry.
