Bot Playlists

summerdancepro — Mon, 07 Sep 2020 07:31:06 GMT

Hello,

someone put one of my songs on their spotify playlist. I then became suspicious when the number of followers increased extremely in a short time. I suspect that it was a bot playlist (but i don't know for sure because im not an expert for that). After one week all this was stopped. I would like to ask spotify to delete the plays, streams and followers that resulted from this. I do not want to receive followers, streams, income etc. from plays in a bot playlist that I unknowingly got caught on. Can you help me there? Thanks a lot!

Hey @summerdancepro,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community! Can you specifically tell me if this is the playlist you created or is this someone's playlist? Thanks!

Have a wonderful day.

It was a playlist someone else created. In the meantime i contacted the spotify artist support via email and they said, they look after it. Thanks so far!

Hi! to Everyone on this thread - there is a new idea 'a way for artists to remove their songs from a specific playlist' that they suspect of being botted. https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/quot-Remove-From-Playlist-Button-quot-for-Artists/idi-p/6182375 Please go and show it some love
