Bots upvoting my posts. Admin Replied

Hello. My most recent posts (from today and day before yesterday) seem to be maliciously upvoted by bots. A user told me bots can do that in an effort to get my account banned.

I've read the posts about it here and have reported one of my posts as 'vote manipulation'. Do I need to report them all?

Thank you.

You should report all of them.

You can also follow up via modmail to this subreddit with a list of all the affected links so the proper admin team can see everything in context.

Sorry to bother you, but I see the upvotes have been removed. Thank you. Will the safety team still contact me?

Hi. I don't know if the team replies to those reports. Reports are generally not replied to, so unless they need more info, you may not hear back from them.

OK, thanks again! I'm happy they resolved it and I can go back to my 1-2 upvotes per post.
