RE: Abuse Guide - 2017 Update

in #steemcleaners6 years ago

Hi,

I'm fairly new, and not exactly sure how I'm supposed to report spammers, but there's a group of accounts that appear to be a spam network that just comment/upvote a few accounts over on dMania, and even leave the same comments over and over again. Sorry if this is not the appropriate place to report this.

Just take a look at these accounts. And this is just a few of the ones I could find within about 2 minutes of looking. You can easily follow their comments and votes and see that there's alot more like this doing the same thing.

all vote/comment within minutes on every post they comment on
newly created accounts in the last week or two
have 0 posts themselves
almost all have exactly 3SP + 9.79SP delegation
hundreds of upvotes to the same group of accounts
recycling the same comments between accounts, incorrect spelling/grammar and all
@aatifmele, @fingerman, @dubailive, @mateosiit, @highcom

And there's at least 50+ more of them just like this. It's pretty obvious that someone setup a bunch of fake accounts and is just using an automated script to cycle through them and upvote their own posts. So there's probably a couple "real" accounts that are gaming the system and getting multiple picks a day using multiple accounts.

Thank you for helping to make this a better place where people cannot abuse the system so easily.
