On the one hand, I can see the poster's point of view. It seems like blatant chicanery. I think we can all agree that the feeling of getting cheated feels terrible.
However.
The new generation of kids have grown up in a digital environment. A lot of them talk, think, and act a lot faster than I do, a person in my 40s.
In a class a few years ago, I glanced at my classmate going through her social media... It was INSANE. The speed at which she scrolled through literally dozens and dozens of posts was dizzying. It was like she was in a contest, except it was just her version of normal.
I've played with a few people who played fast. It definitely caught my attention. Like you said, it just feels too fast to be a person. However, I'd give them the benefit of the doubt. Start a conversation, don't accuse them of anything, just see who they are. You might be surprised.
