Username Correlation
The Habit of Identity
Humans are creatures of habit. We reuse usernames across platforms. By finding a username on a hobby forum, you can often pivot to a real identity on LinkedIn.
Tools:
- Sherlock/Maigret: Python scripts that query hundreds of sites for a specific username.
- Namechk: Quick visual check for availability (and thus existence).
- WhatsMyName: Highly accurate enumeration.
