It doesn't surprise me at all, actually. These idiots brag about this to friends constantly and try to make new connections inside the companies to exploit. I have a very short Twitter that people try to take over constantly, and by virtue of being on the platform early, I've accrued a few "OG" accounts for various projects or whatever. When someone stole one of my accounts that I didn't use anymore by having their friend take it over, I had my friend look into it and they reversed it.
The account jacking idiot then messaged me trying to get me to put them in touch with my friend so they could try to help them get other accounts and bragged about how he was just going to take some of my other accounts that he somehow knew belonged to me despite there being no link to one another outside of what would be Twitter-internal data. It was the most brazenly ridiculous thing I've ever encountered, but I'm assuming it's an ignorant kid who doesn't realize the possible consequences or a really dumb adult.
So, I can totally believe the idiot would just blurt out how he got it because that gives him clout amongst his miscreant "OG account" friends.
