We all have that one good friend who can reputedly to find someone on the internet with probably the most basic, vague, and smallest of details about an individual.
Did you spot the coiffure at the back of any person's head in your boyfriend's Instagram tale, and they were dancing a bit too close to him for convenience? This is the good friend you name.
And a TikToker who is going by Kahn (@notkahnjunior), in this writer's opinion, is surely that good friend, which she gave quite a few proof for in a recent clip she posted to her account in response to every other person on the platform's problem that she wouldn't be in a position to to find out who he was once.
It used to be a tall order: the man does not have his identify listed on his account and his username does not truly give much of an inkling as to who he may well be: @jd867_5309.
Replying to @jd867_5309 glad truck month to all whocelebrate, & to all others glad volkswagen signal & pressure
♬ original sound - kahn Source: TikTok | @notkahnjuniorKahn says in her video: "Oh JD you think because your profile picture is a truck that I won't find you. Well, guess what? My nickname is the bus driver. Why? Because I'm about to take your a-- to school! There was basically no information about you on your TikTok though."
Kahn continued, "Nothing about what you look like, nothing about where you live, and if I Google your username: zero results! At the top it does say JD so I was like maybe your first name starts with J and your middle or last name starts with D. But that was it! You have two TikToks posted here's your dog who is sad because you forgot to buy him a cheeseburger in which case you deserve Federal Prison!"
The TikToker went on in her clip, explaining her method: "only thing I could do was look at your followers. I always go to the bottom of your follower list first because when you join TikTok it asks you to sync your contacts and your first couple of followers are most likely people you know in real life."
"And since I didn't know anything about you except maybe your name starts with J, I was looking for TikToks that your followers posted that maybe you commented on. Eventually, I did find someone but they were towards the top of your follower list. I was surprised. I will call her A and you commented a few times."
She rattled off a couple of feedback he left in this follower's video that didn't in point of fact give much perception into who he could be. However, she did come throughout a observation he made on considered one of her videos that piqued her interest and it was once the way that he wrote it that got her gears spinning.
"But one comment you made is the reason that I found out who you were and it wasn't what you said it was how you said it. January of this year, A made a TikTok about how she went on a family vacation and bonded with her younger cousin the entire time. On that TikTok you said: 'such a good time.'
It's the phrasing of how JD wrote that comment that led her down a rabbit hole of searching A's social media accounts: "You did not say that appeared like the sort of excellent time. You did not say I'm hoping you two had such a just right time. You mentioned 'the sort of excellent time.' Which says to me that you just have been there!"
I said let me try to find A's Instagram and see if she posted any family pictures around January for that trip. She has her full name on TikTok so I found her Instagram right away. And on January 3rd of this year, she posted a picture of a bunch of people wearing the same glasses."
"This is her in the middle, and on the left is the cousin from the TikTok." Not glad with leaving it there, Kahn needed additional affirmation that this cousin in the picture was the same person that A posted online: "Well I said let me look at the comments and the likes on this Instagram post to see if there any people who look like the others around her."
"And one person who liked it has this Instagram profile picture. And they look a lot like this person on the right in A's Instagram post. That person has their full name on their private Instagram account so I typed that full name into Facebook."
Kahn then begins to rattle off a series of footage she discovered on Facebook when she looked for the person she suspected was once JD, giving her further validation that she found the individual behind the truck profile image TikTok.
And she said while there could also be some who would argue that the guy she discovered wasn't JD, she were given even further evidence that it was him: his fifth profile image on his Facebook account was the similar truck that he used for his TikTok account, at the side of a picture of the similar dog in his burger-less video.
She takes it even further, even demonstrating how she used to be able to find out the guy's birthday, by scrolling via his Facebook feed and finding that he wished Happy Birthday to his cousin, who he thanked with a card, which had her suppose that he was only a few days prior.
Sure enough, it used to be. She ends the video by wishing the man a Happy Birthday.
JD wrote within the feedback segment that he was inspired and that he stood corrected, and there used to be a slew of different TikTokers who have been shocked on the skills she displayed within the clip.
