  1. How do I get rid of follow bots?


    So I was playing Forza Horizon 4 with some friends, and out of nowhere I started to get follow botted by over 6000 follow bots, and I am starting to worry about getting my only account banned because of that. Is there a solution to get rid of them?

    :)

    How do I get rid of follow bots?

    Hi IronKnight!

    Unfortunately, we cannot control who's going to follow us. That's really fine because it's like they're trying to add you as friend - as long as you don't accept or add them back, they cannot be part of your friend's list. You shouldn't get banned for that because the Xbox Enforcement team take each report or case into consideration before doing such actions. As long as you do not violate the Xbox Community Standards https://www.xbox.com/legal/community-standards then you're safe.

    You may instead change or edit your privacy settings to control how you communicate or share your account information online.

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > Account > Privacy & online safety > Xbox privacy.

    Or through https://account.xbox.com/Settings

    I keep receiving “bot” followers on xbox and i don’t know who’s sending them to me.

    Is there better or faster way i can remove these “bot” followers? Because it would take forever to block them and remove them individually, please help me. I really would like these bots removed from my followers list, they all have 0 gamer score so you can tell they’re bots. There doesn’t really seem like there’s a way to prevent people from following you, but i would like to get rid of these bot followers if there’s a way i can do that.

    How do I remove botted followers on Xbox

    You won't get banned, as you have done nothing wrong. You can block & report each one, or leave them. It won't affect your account.

    Microsoft, do you need a reason to stop allowing people to follow without permission?

    Bots are always going to pop up. Get rid of one and two more replace it. I just ignore the notifications about getting a new follower. If they don't constantly send messages I forget about them and carry on with my day.

    I’m getting follow botted

    Hi, my name is Annanda, thank you for your question and for reaching out.

    You will not get banned unless you did something wrong to get all these followers. If nothing wrong was done, you can rest at ease. This is a known situation and you will not get suspended just because many people/bots started following you.

    I hope I was able to answer your questions! Please, if you have any other doubts, we are here to help.

    If the reply was helpful, please don’t forget to upvote or accept as an answer, thank you.

    Best Regards, Annanda.
