The suspect new accounts seem to be all the ones whose profile cannot be viewed. Not all of them have obvious spam usernames.

Thank you and good luck with your efforts.
I forwarded your concern to higher ups.... Hopefully a response is forth coming....

I don't know how they are getting into these accounts, or if they are mimicking them somehow, but to this point, I haven't sen any utilizing any active accounts. I'll let you know what or if I find out anything....

And Thanks for your input...
