    The laptop was probably real but I suspect the drive was cleared and this is recovered data or that the hard drive was simply copied illegally prior to the repair.

      Or the data came from a Russian hacking group and just got put onto a random laptop for “evidence-laundering” (whatever the term is for that in this sort of situation)
