The 'crypto guru' account that turned out to be a real estate agent

I spent about 6 months following this account that posted insane crypto predictions, like calling Bitcoin drops to the exact dollar. I was sure it was a bot farming engagement, especially after they started replying to every comment with the same three emojis. Then I saw a local news article from Phoenix where this guy got interviewed about flipping houses, and his face matched the profile pic. Turns out he uses an AI scheduler for his posts and just copy-pastes generic replies, but the market calls were actually his own analysis from his day job. It made me wonder how many 'suspicious' accounts are just lazy humans with automation tools, not actual AI. Has anyone else found a profile that looked fake but turned out to be a real person using bots behind the scenes?

Makes you wonder how many "normal" accounts are just bots too.
