reflection: The strategy succeeded by first INSPECTing 10 low-suspicion accounts to map the network’s baseline behavior, confirming that comment_repeat_score and photo_reuse_score consistently spiked in gang members. Once five accounts showed matching red flags, FLAGging them triggered auto-suspect propagation, revealing the full gang without unnecessary INVESTIGATE_NETWORK steps—this minimized steps while maximizing coverage. Future cases should always begin with targeted INSPECTs to validate signals before FLAGging, avoiding premature network expansion.


reflection: By systematically INSPECTing high-risk accounts with elevated fake_risk_score and multiple red flags—comment_repeat_score, shared_ip_count, and photo_reuse_score—we uncovered a tightly coordinated gang operating under identical bio templates. Each confirmed fake account revealed neighbors with identical patterns, making network expansion unnecessary; we prioritized direct inspection over speculative INVESTIGATE_NETWORK, conserving steps while maximizing precision. Future cases should trust low-step inspection of high-signal accounts first, letting flagged neighbors naturally expose the rest.


reflection: We successfully identified the gang by first inspecting 10 low-suspicion accounts to establish baseline behavior, then flagged those showing high comment_repeat_score, shared_ip_count, and photo_reuse_score — all consistent with coordinated fake accounts. The key was waiting to flag until multiple signals aligned, which prevented false positives and triggered auto-suspect expansion, revealing the full network without unnecessary steps. Always inspect first to calibrate, then flag only when signals converge.
