Best next moves
Verify the LinkedIn anchor profile
This is the strongest identity match and should be the baseline for any further checks. Compare the public ID, company, and education details against any trusted source you already have.
Check the weaker Facebook candidates
The Facebook profiles only match on name or broad location, so they need photo and mutual-contact checks before you treat them as the same person.
Check the alternate Facebook candidate
This profile has a name-order match and a Belgian location, but there is not enough evidence to confirm ownership.
Review the X/Twitter name match
The X/Twitter account matches the name, but there is no biography or employer detail to support attribution.
Assess the Instagram handle matches
Both Instagram handles are only pattern matches, so they are useful as leads, not as confirmations.
Monitor this Linkedin account for changes
Track handle changes, bio edits, profile removals, and new signals without re-checking this account manually.
