Sure, anyone could do it.
But if the idea is to identify the leaker, you have to a)care, which
means you work for Pentax, b)have a pretty good idea who the leaker is
already ("it was one of these five guys" DOES NOT help in that kind of
situation), and c)be able to do something with the information.
If all you're trying to do is get egg on Rice High's face you would
presumably not care about any of that, but the "expose the leaker"
scenario requires that you *do* care about that, which means you're
working for Pentax, and hopefully have the wits God gave a gannet
concerning the sort of information you can safely fake leaking.
