I tried to login to the account to check the IP addresses and the password was changed.

I messaged Chris and asked him what was up and he simply said "Magi-Chan" is looking out for his best interests.

Guard Dog The Captain[1]
[Chris's passwords are] autistic combinations of letters, numbers and symbols that no one would be able to figure out. He just hands them out to "magichan".
Guard Dog Marvin
A tweet from CWCSonichu's Twitter account, location stamped as being from Auckland, New Zealand.

From October 2018-December 2018, Chris's CWCSonichu Twitter account was compromised by a troll posing as Magi-Chan who socially engineered him into giving his password. They would login and post tweets without his knowledge or consent. Some tweets which affirmed Chris's fantasies were kept up; others such as those leaking content from the Idea Guys would be swiftly deleted.

Location stamps

The Captain speculated that a VPN was used by "Magi-Chan" to tweet from CWCSonichu due to strange location stamps on some tweets. He reported that he asked Chris about it, and that "he didn't seem concerned about the location tag."[2]

A tweet from 13 October 2018, which posted fanart depicting Mewtwo with sexual overtones, was location stamped as being from Sydney, Australia. The tweet was quickly deleted.[3]

Another tweet from 14 October 2018 was stamped as being from Auckland, New Zealand.

Tug of war

The Guard Dogs were involved in a tug-of-war over the account.
