There are a bit too many IPs to list but from my logs they're always of the form 74.7.2XX.* for GPTBot, matching OpenAIs published ip ranges[0].

So yes, they are definitely running scrapers that are this badly written.

Also old scraper bots trying to disguise themselves as GPTBot seems wholly unproductive, they're try to immitate users, not bots.
