When Anti-Abuser Abuses for profit. Well, Hello 10k fake accounts botnet...
Not so long ago, I noticed the first-ever downvote received here on authorship article, just due to a fact it has been published on my personal website and few other magazines / communities. The post in question is: this one. As it can be seen, it's authorship work I decided to share with the community. (What a crime!).
What happened afterwards, are sporadic downvotes on every post afterwards.
For the purpose of others Victims of the same sherif who controls this group of bots, the accounts that are "fighting abusers" to start analysis, are:
@altrei
@johnblackfield
@steempioneer
@steembotalpha
@fushcarbon
(to be updated, unless Mr Oğuz stop his fraudulent work).
Which after a bit of interconnected account investigations, leads to https://steemd.com/@odl
Who seems to create an army of fake bots to fight "abuse" without even paying attention or reading posts.
I am not going to dig deeper into this network of "Great abuse fighters" (for their pocket), who are abusing contributions and hard work of regular community.
I would kindly ask you to stop creating network of bots further damaging the quality of content, not to mention consequences of enormous amounts of fake accounts.
Recently, Twitter removed millions of fake accounts in order to protect the health of the commercial product their social network is. I simply can't believe how much irresponsibility is taken here, rather then learning from mistakes of big players.
Are you f***ng aware you are ruining already questionable future of great project that Steemit is with your hypocrisy of fighting abuse by abusing the system?
What you are going to achieve? Millions of SDB worth zero, as no-one is going to write anymore?
Please shutdown your bot network and remove your irregular downvotes, or expect a in depth cross-list of all of your interconnected accounts. (almost 20k).
By the way, congratulations of being fast in account creation...You even manage to follow yourself before getting the delegation...
The account is a fork from https://steemd.com/@oguz known for a great reputation.
Kindly shut-down your botnet and remove downvotes.
Thank You.

I've had a few downvotes from a user using a French obscenity for a name. :-(

Most of accounts have almost 0 SP, so flags are not powerful.
I agree, but the number of accounts is huge. The reason for no power is that the guy transfer all the earnings from fake accounts towards his one, and extracts the money. It's basically a fraud scheme, while describes his fake accounts as a abuse fighters. (Amount of accounts that transfer SDB to his account without any note is enormous).
While he don't have much impact on us, he could easy abuse new users who are just starting. I don't think this amount of fake account is healthy for the network either.
Personally, not hurt at all about his few downvotes, but triggered me to check and find interesting inter-connections.
