How can I escape from this bots?

dropthemic · May 21, 2023

Ok. Reddit is one of the best social media I ever meet. But I have some problems right now and I don't know how to resolve this. So I need the help of people with more experience in this field and I would like to know if you have faced such a problem. My Reddit accounts are targeted by two bots or I don't even know exactly what they are. Wherever I post something, this bot appears and gives me an answer as if I were a bot and encourages people to report me. Which affects my credibility a lot. These two bots are u/SpambotSwattr and u/SpambotSwattr. These two bots greatly affect conversions and gradually destroy my work done so far. And my accounts are banned from various subreddits, my posts as well and my accounts are reported. I have already blocked them and reported them but without any effect. So ladies and gentlemen, I am calling on your knowledge to help me overcome this problem and I would like to know if you have had such a problem. Thank you for your time today.

Yes. And I use Incognito browser + VPN. I have an account on my phone and one for each browser. They follow me on the account on the phone, on which I only have 5 positions. And I say I'm spamming. These posts are just answers in AskReddit. They have already managed to ban 10 of my accounts. I only have 2 left, both tracked. I post something, and after 10 minutes he appears and comments.

reverse engineer how they find you and take counteractive measures.

i had same thing happen when i was spamming xhamster. 2 users would take it upon themselves to call themselves the spam police. they would catch all my accounts and post the same stuff that's going on your reddit. later i found out i could simply block them and they would not see any of my accounts or interact with me. i took action on my bot and added a function to block those 2 users. never had an issue again. well they eventually tried making more accounts but i won that fight and they gave up very fast.

are you spamming? are you promoting affiliate links? all redditors will say that is spam, even if you are giving genuine helpful replies. perhaps find a way to cloak your links better. another shortcut is find your competitors and see how they're getting away with it.

Happened to me once before too... Used the exact same method you just mentioned... Maybe OP needs to do same...

Hacked? I do a factory reset. Or how can I resolve this?

I already block them. Their comments are not visible to me but are visible to other users. I tried to reduce the placement of links and act like a normal user. I just answer various posts or make various posts in various subreddits and do not post any links. But these bots keep appearing. What can I do?

maybe take a break from /r/askreddit and try smaller boards.
last week i was googling for 'best dry eye eyedrops reddit' or something like that. the top link was to an optometry subreddit.
top comment wrote a nice post with link to top 5 recommended eye drops. it all looked so clean and natural i didn't even notice this was an affiliate marketer until a few minutes later. dug around into the users profile he only had 1-3 cpa links, and a rest were usual benign comments you see on there. made me think he is probably buying phished accounts to make it impossible to track him other than searching his domain names.

Of course, I will take a break from /askreddit because I was banned from this subreddit. I was banned from subreddits where I don't post anything with links. So I don't know what to do. The bans come over and over. When I try to talk with mods, all say that I am a bot, because of these bots.

your accounts are a too obvious bot, that i can tell you
these bots can monitor posts in r/askreddit but they can't monitor millions of posts in other subreddits, change target subreddit and you'll be fine

I thought those bots don't wont anymore because reddit API's are no longer free I was wrong

the new rules will be applied on 1th june, anti spam bots will still run for free as with spam bots but will run at a limitation of 60 api request per minute

No your phone is not hacked, no it's not a ghost, you are just leaving footprints somewhere.
Could it be that you are using some AI content for answers?
Similar nicknames?
Or a unique shortner/your domain in all posts?

How to find spammers of reddit 101 - https://www.reddit.com/domain/goo.gl/ (replace goo.gl with the domain you are using in your posts ) all your posts appear there? Then you have your answer.

They follow me in any subreddit. This is the problem. But thanks for your time.

I buy a domain for Reddit. Maybe I use this domain too much. do you think that if I buy another domain to replace the one I'm using now, it would solve this problem?

nobody can guarantee the answer is yes. but generally the odds are in your favor for a desirable outcome.
you could experiment with link shortners to see if they work and you save yourself some money.
all depends on how sophisticated these spam hunters are. they could easily have their parses visit internal links and scrape for known footprints several levels deep.

I understand. But the bots also appear in comments that do not have a link.

Well, if they already got you , maybe just share a couple of your account names here, so we could see what is going on and help you fix it
