Not accounts. This is a Bitcoin address with 34 characters starting with 1 used in the Byteball ownership of wallets verification process. And the strange payment of 0.001208 is the payment for verification.
Putting this out there for everyone:
The OP will earn 0.02188999BTC at current prices for every 1BTC you are holding on July 9. You can do it alone!
I also see this kind of service offer but the other service has a high pay rate compare to this one. I think his username is loyceV and this is for byteball airdrop. You are right that the owner itself can do it but this kind of service is good for user that don't know the procedure on claiming.
