Celebrating Astroturfers and Sockpuppets Day!

Has anyone seen either of these characters today??

There have been one or two suspicious characters popping up in the wake of one or two controversial topics …

OK, well, flag them for moderator attention with an explanation if you have evidence of sockpuppets or astroturfers.
