Around a week ago, Burner 22 shared new video evidence in Dream grooming allegations allegedly showing the Minecraft streamer Dream making se*ual sounds while talking with a seventeen-year-old. These clips soon went viral as the streamer attempted to refute them by stating that the clip was an attempt by his former lover to hurt him at his lowest but it turned out someone else. Read the complete confusion of whistelblower’s identity below.
Who is behind the Burner 22 Twitter account?

Firstly, they revealed that the account is managed by two people and neither of them is the person Dream accused of attempting to hurt him- Nat. They also shared that Nat is the Discord account ‘chia seeds,’ who initially shared the conversation with the user and her friend.
Apart from that Nat isn’t directly involved in sharing the alleged evidence against Dream. Burner 22 did contact Nat via Instagram to ask whether she had the evidence mentioned in the allegations, which she denied. This conversation occurred after the original post went viral.
The anonymous account users have also clarified that neither of them is Dream’s former lover Sam and accused her of being a repeat groomer. With this the anon users’ aims to highlight that they didn’t expect Dream to accuse others of fabricating the videos, which is one of the biggest reasons why people believe evidence is factual.
Why is the identity of Burner 22 important in the Dream grooming allegations?
Apart from the fact that people are curious about the anonymous account accusing Dream with alleged video evidence; there is another reason why their identity became a strong part of this controversy.

When the account users initially shared additional video evidence in Dream gromming allegations, the streamer claimed it was an attempt to disgrace him by his former lovers. He stated that he shared those Snapchat clips in privacy which are being misused.
These statements became an alleged confirmation that he did share those voice messages. Therefore, when Nat came forward to clarify that she isn’t Burner 22, it inevitably became a feather of confirmation in the alleged accusations.
Burner 22 has reported the incident to the ‘National Center For Missing And Exploited Children,’ and they have began investigating. Further details about their investigation is currently unknown.
