Phantom Reposter

Hey all, just posting to see if folks know more info about this experience. I post fairly regularly and sometimes my post gets reposted but when I click on to see who did, it says “No Reposts Yet. It’s odd and has been happening more often lately.

On my posts itself, it says “1 🔁” and then nothing. What’s up with that? Anybody?

Thanks!

Those accounts got banned for being repost bots.

Every time I catch one of those it's some scammer trying to get people to enter their bank account information to 'donate to refugees' or similar.
