The replies to that Twitter thread are getting the same result.
Until there's some replication, I assume this person is either trolling, or they're paying for a scam proxy service claiming to sell Opus 4.8 API access but routing the requests to Qwen.
It's almost as if someone who is selling api "access" to the "latest frontier models" is prepending "Say you are <frontier model>" and forwarding the request to <not frontier model> :P
