Wouldn’t it make more sense to suspect the account with hundreds of thousands of karma points to be the karma farmer?

You should always be suspicious of anything that you have not experienced yourself.

I used to care about HN karma a lot before spiritual awakening. Had 2 accounts with 2000+ karma before. It was one of those things that helped in building a grand ego for myself.

Now I just prefer to post from randomly created HN accounts.

You can probably come back a few months later and see this account to be no longer active.

Ahh. I think I misread what you wrote. Ignore the above comment.
No, because the top 99.99+ percentile of accounts will attract much greater scrutiny from the mods.
