I recommend that you do not accept the request and do not interact. That way you are not at risk.

Hope I helped and see you soon

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

No, you do not need to worry, you will not be banned for this, especially if you have not done anything to receive this many followers. So with that in mind ( that you will not be banned ) what I can recommend you do is block and report as many of these accounts as you can, so whatever may have started this, has the chance to be found by the team checking the reports. I know that it can be exausting blocking and reporting many times, so do at your own pace until it stops.

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

Yes i understand i have been banned for botted followers but what im saying I DID NOT bot the followers. People use a tool to bot follow someone’s account and the account owner pays the price for SOMEONE ELSE bot following THEIR account do you not understand how this is wrong? It is entirely out of my control i cant stop someone from spamming bots to follow my account and the enforcement team knows this. Like i could find someone to bot follow someone’s account and result in their account getting banned how is that even legal or fair? I understand there is nothing you can do to help except send the same enforcement link which doesnt do anything as my appeal was already denied but i am posting this to spread awareness to other players that may have the same issue. Microsoft need to fix this immediately it is wrong to permanently ban someone for someone else bot following their account making me lose all my games and content i have paid for and all my progress over 16+ years with 111k gamerscore.

Yes,it does apply.

If it is a spam/bot account then if you report it the enforcement team will look into it & ban the account from live.

Reporting does NOTHING! For every spam bot account that gets banned 10 more will be created! This is not a resolution at all! Essentially we're all being harassed on the service we PAY TO USE and were being told to do something that resolves NOTHING! There
has to be something more Microsoft can do!
