From CWCki

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.

The Captain[1]

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. The tweets 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 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.
