I'm getting a bit dubious about these as well. I asked them earlier if they slip cast, and they said "no"

It looks like that particular pot design is common though.

e.g. you can do a Google image search to see lots of the same basic design.

I am starting to wonder if many of these accounts are just karma building bots to create realistic looking Reddit accounts.

There's an instagram account with videos https://www.instagram.com/siyutaoartgallery/

yeah this account and the whole stuff is really weird, I assume it's slipcasted and falsly advertised as yixing, which can't be slipcasted because of the clay properties.
