Atfirst glance nothing specialabout him.
But when you click the Network button you will see something peculiar.
So, before you are following anybody, click the network button FIRST!

Auto clicking is software that robotically increases the speed of functions done by clicking your mouse. Rated as Click Per Second (CPS) auto clicking can range from as little as 300 cps to 1,000.
Using the example presented by Loes of https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/jessicaflair... if you open Jessica's network to see who she is "Following" you will see 122,487. She acquired theses numbers in about 2 weeks. This network is a guestimation on my part of what WA's "active" membership is. The only persons' numbers near this are Kyle and Carson as Administrators!
(Note: Jessica, who actually posted a couple of times when challenged admitted to using Auto Clicking software to build her network).
Now, the clicker has done its job. All the Follows are out. All the spammer does now is go spam some other network while WAers visit Jessica's website, cruising and clicking around, and dropping her support comments (that no one will ever read or answer... remember the site is potentially a Pay Per Click so she is making money with every visit WAers make and she never has to type a single word to us - even to say "thanks for the follow").
In less than 3 months the JessicaFlair robot has clicked up 2,699 Followers!!! (She actually had more at one time but as WAers are catching on they are UnFollowing her).
So... the gist of it is Spammers use Auto Clicking for the NUMBERS. With the scams they promote... it is all about numbers, traffic, conversion... all without "social engagement" as we are rightfully taught in WA.
Auto clicking software has been problematic with overloading network servers not built to manage the volume they produce. Also, auto clicking causes problems to online advertising companies because of their pay per click system. Many competitors of different companies use this means to raise the advertising budgets of their rivals by spam clicking on their advertisement link, although they have no interest in their product. Many people have been sued for using an auto clicker "click fraud" cases.
Another name for Auto Clicking software is "Cheater's Software"
Does this help?
