Not saying I don't agree that this is likely merit abuse. What's everyone's opinion? The top 3 guys with 44, 50, and 16 merits sent look to be extremely likely culprits of abuse, but the rest are all low senders.

Opinions here would be great.

I don't want to weigh in someone else's opinion but if we are talking about tagging people here the only justifiable tag is on their merit abuse, since we don't have enough proof that they are controlled by one person and the campaign you are handling like you said allows multiple accounts then tagging them either as bounty cheaters or alt accounts of one person would be just unreasonable doubt. At least with the evidence shown of sending enormous amount of merits, within a short time frame, and then deleting them onward shows that their is at least a merit abuse happening without digging in any deeper if they are just controlled by one person. That is just my two cents in this case and at the end of the day it is still your call if what they did is allowable in not to happen in your campaign.

When you start looking at all the profiles you can see that alot of them were last online within 15 minutes of each other. Most of them joined the campaign 20-21 days ago, depending on timezone for the admin panel/bot. In the OP you can see some userids are very close.

They may all be linked or only most of them are linked, but they are all banned. Some may have experienced collateral damage, but I decided to nuke em all from the campaign due to the evidence presented.

Great find @hosseinimr93 and thanks to all who weighed in with opinions.
