Creating sock puppets
Good to knoe: Sock hunters are people who can identify sock puppets
Step One: Generate a fake name & identity (see fake name generator in resources)
Step 2: Create a picture for it using an AI generated photo (see thisperson does not exist in resources)
Step 3: type this person with accounts that does not tie back to you (specific computer for your investigations, burner phone,...)
You can create a virtual credit card with privacy.com website (see link in resources) this way you can buy a burner phone or anything using it
You can use mint mobile sim card for the burner phone
Do not do the investigation on your own IP address
