Russian term or phrase: анкеты (see context)
1) Файл с данными пользователей социальной сети «В контакте» появился вчера на одном из сайтов в интернете (http://83.133.120.252). Он содержал email и пароли более 130 000 аккаунтов. Подлинность данных проверил корреспондент «Ведомостей», зашедший с их помощью в несколько анкет.

2) По словам Попкова, основные потребители ворованных аккаунтов — спамеры; существует целый черный рынок перепродажи данных, собранных с помощью фишинговых сайтов. В «Одноклассниках» много спама рассылается именно с таких анкет, признает он. На форумах за взлом анкеты «В контакте» и «Одноклассников» хакеры просят от 500 до 5000 руб.

Seems to be a synonym for аккаунты; is this normal?

Explanation:
Yes, I believe it's just a way of referring to profiles or accounts in this context. If you look at the help section of "В контакте" (http://vkontakte.ru/help.php), they're also called "анкеты" there.
