You are free to make your own judgement, I am just empowering you with information.

How this technique works

1. Follow thousands of people in hope that they will follow back in return
2. Some people do follow back (in-fact a lot do!)
3. After a few days or weeks simply unfollow all users you had followed

This makes their followers numbers more than following and to a newbie user visiting the profile, it seems that these are really popular users.

Steemit is very different from the typical Social Networks and we all know it. With this report, I am not trying to point any fingers and you may have legitimate reasons to unfollow people in thousands! I am just trying to bring more transparency in the platform. The aim is to make aware and discourage people from using such practices which otherwise work perfectly on other closed Social Platforms!

WOW I am shocked to see the amount of unfollows!!!! Almost 4k People! That is crazy! LOL well I bet their revenue with their (probably) shitty posts is very bad. So I am not worried with that People. They are all over all social networks. :D unfortunately

It is indeed shocking to see so many unfollows by one person in 1 day.. but this is just 10% of what I have seen before.. In one of my earlier reports there was a user who had unfollowed 35,000 in 24 Hrs!!

wow that is impressive even to think that People take the time to do that. But i see that everyday on my instagram and it annoys me so much grrrr :D

I don't even think this method works with SteemIt. I mean how many follow for follow followers actually have any voting power?

yeah for sure that wont work and that People wont be doing any money or creating any quality content. So there is no point on doing that in here LOL

I guess spammers don't quite understand the system...

True! They cant get bothered to understand. But also they will get tired fast when they see they are not making any profit. :D

This is great man. I wish I could see your query :D

Here you go.. it's all transparent :)

select top 10 follower as Username, count(*) as Unfollows from txcustomsfollows where what = '[]' and left(timestamp,11) = 'Jul 24 2017' group by follower order by Unfollows desc
