>This investigation identified several suspicious profiles that frequently interacted with Cleo, including those of Vladimir Reshetnikov and Laila Podlesny.

Is the assumption that Vladimir posed as Laila to post the, presumably already solved problems, and then posed as Cleo to 'answer' them quickly? Wiki doesn't come out and make this accusation, but the apparent connection between the 3 accounts makes it seem like that's the case.

1. People love correcting other people. If you want to get an answer, don’t ask for the solution — instead, post a (possibly) wrong answer under a different pseudonym. People will then want to prove you wrong. 2. Even more so if you’re a woman.

that comment was flagged, and while on the face of it, without further context, that may be reasonable, the video in the above linked thread reveals that engaging people to post an answer was in fact the motivation for creating the cleo account, essentially supporting the statement made in the flagged comment.

Jfc, of course it was downvoted.
Sorry let me clarify, this site is a mini shit hole full of projecting insecure men. Xoxo, never change.
