    Will i get banned from all these botted xbox followers that i can’t control?

    Hi. My name is Brilliant and I am happy to assist you today.

    Here is a thread with a similar issue to the one you're currently facing: https://answers.microsoft.com/thread/41aba8b2-9bf5-4bea-ad68-8e2ce92e1918

    It states that:
    Actually, there are some reports about this that bots are being used to follow active users on Xbox so they can also be followed back for them to look legit and possibly use that account for fraud.

    If they do not look legit to you, I suggest to just block them or just make sure not to follow them back. But this feature is already bound with Xbox and cannot be removed or avoided.

    Just also make sure you set your privacy settings properly where they cannot view your information.

    You may do that here:

    I hope this helps resolve your query.

    Banned for someone bot following my account.

    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.

    Why are bots following me and can I get banned ?

    Yes, but you don't have to do them in one day. You can take your time reporting them. Just bear in mind, there will always be bot accounts. Whenever one follows you, just report and block it as usual.
