Can there be fake players in Scrabble GO?

Question

Hello,I've been playing Scrabble Go with Leah for over a month. She's a very good player who takes no more than 20 seconds to make her moves. That works for me, the game is very fast (sometimes I get stressed, but whatever). I then sent a congratulatory message to Leah after an epic match, she never replied and continues to play like a robot. At any hour, 4 AM, 6 AM or otherwise, once I place a word she responds within half a minute. Is it possible that my partner Leah is a machine?!?Configuration: Android / Chrome 88.0.4324.152

Hello,
Yes, there are a lot of robots playing on Scrabble Go! It's quite annoying, actually. However, they are pretty easy to identify; the first thing is that they play very quickly and at all hours, and the second, as you mentioned, is that they never respond. To be sure it's a robot, you just need to go to the player profile (by clicking on their photo), usually they all come from the United States, and the last undeniable proof is that their best word is always equal to 0.
You just need to click on "cancel game" to avoid playing with these robots :)

Hello,

Valerie07 on Scrabble Go.
I had exactly the same thoughts as you (speed, timing...) especially Leah.G.
So I'm also quite doubtful about the real existence of certain players.
I played classic Scrabble online for a long time and had the same doubts about some opponents.
I don't understand the point of putting robots in these games!

Hello, yes there are a lot of bots (robots) on Scrabble, it’s quite annoying, you can see it by clicking on the player’s picture. When you see the American flag ???????? don't look any further, it’s a bot! Only select players with the French flag ???????? and chat with them, if they respond it’s definitely a real person!

Jess · Answer

Hello, I've been playing against Leah for 2-3 days and I was thinking exactly the same thing! She must be a bot!

Odilette · Answer

Hello, does this player have or did she have a real profile picture? Or was it a drawing of a face... or something else? Thank you

Elina · Answer

I also had this problem and I thought that Leah was a machine, so I stopped playing with that person.

Hello. I was wondering exactly the same thing about a player named Robert. He plays at any hour of the day or night, and if I score, say, 30 points, he will score exactly the same points. If I put in a little note, he does the same with the same number of points. We are often tied or the score gap at the end is very close. And of course, no response to messages...

DominiqueLECOQ · Answer

Same for me with this person, but there are others ???? and I asked myself the same question as you: robot ??

Acadienne · Answer

There are many robots, and they are easy to detect by the registration date.

Maroyo46 · Answer

Yes, there are fake players. Customer support doesn't hide it when confronted with this problem.
There's also Robert E., and many others
You can recognize them by certain signs:
They are all American USA
They respond very quickly at any hour of the day or night
Their game mirrors ours: short or long words in reflection with our games
The photo that identifies them inspires sympathy
Their best word is often not recognized by the Scrabble dictionary
Their average number of words and games is average and always lower than yours
If you add them to your favorites and check the information (little blue man at the bottom right of the board), you will be amazed by the number of points these "players" have scored compared to your own score or the score of your other partners.
The goal of Scopely is to push you to play as much as possible, even to get you hooked.
They are increasingly introducing games on the periphery of the real Scrabble board game that are designed for you to play compulsively.
So detach yourself from your overall score.
Select French players close to your word score (even if it's just an indication).

Fed up with fake players and scammers! It's really hellish!

micrealbesalopin · Answer

...I also noticed this same profile of "players", it is obvious that this is not the kind of opponent we are targeting...the interest of the game is quite different, but what can we do?...

Hello, I'm like you. Too many robot players. Do you know how to identify them in order to avoid them? Best regards Danic

Blackeddie67 · Answer

Hello everyone!
I confirm the statements, remarks, and observations of your comments. And for good reason, I am a victim of the collateral damage from the interface of the messaging of Scrabble Go. I strongly wish to alert all players! Indeed, since certain updates, I have noticed that I can play against robotic profiles, etc. But that's not all! Behind some fake profiles also hide fakes, scammers, and charm chat pros in the porn industry, and I weigh my words. These people approach you with often poor English or French. To propose business deals to invest in bitcoin, for example. Often they are part of Forex or an affiliate. To make a long story short, the Scrabble Go contact staff suggests you block and report these profiles by sending them screenshots as proof, and all exchanges must be in English. Since then, I have been receiving a notification suggesting that I reload the game, as supposedly several devices are connected to my Scrabble Go account, and that is illegal. But that's not all, a third party is logging in and sending obscene messages to my female contacts without my knowledge, etc. So I can no longer play and have uninstalled the gaming app! So be careful!

There’s also Louis, every time he scores just a point below mine. He plays at all hours of the day and night. I even wondered at first if he was disabled and stuck in bed.
He always responds to me too. And like everyone else, I asked him a question: “Are you a robot?” No answer!
Later, I sent “Hello?” and still no response.
I canceled the game.

Evelyn · Answer

Hello Of course, there are player bots! There's also Zoey. I only play with people I know in real life. I reject all the others.

Danic · Answer

Good evening, how to get new frames, none have been open for a long time? Thank you

Nikko · Answer

I think it's even worse than that... Algorithms in the game distribute letters to either help or hinder you... Even with real players... The goal is to get you to use jokers: letter changes or word suggestions... Because the purpose of the game is for you to see ads... That's their source of revenue... The game is completely rigged... Even with real players.

Gk69 · Answer

Yes, they are robots. I noticed a wave of registrations dated 08/14/2019... all of them are robots!!

Neitsabes · Answer

Hello Nanette, hello everyone... I come here with the same questions and it seems obvious... So many ads on this app, flattering our ego with a bot always ready to play, and often less skilled than us, it becomes addictive and therefore prompt to see even more ads! And their pricing policy... €1.79 to block ads for one day, just one day, when for the same price it is permanent on other apps... I’m not saying this app isn’t worth it: great design, excellent dictionary, super ergonomic... But so many gems, bonuses, bots, just to bombard us with ads: it’s too much!!! If you want to play against a real person, my username is: neitsabes ... Have a great day!!!

Claudia · Answer

Good evening, I have the same thing, so. It's not a human but a robot, I think.

Pat · Answer

Hello Yes, I have noticed it with several players. They are machines, I think.

Pat · Answer

However, I came across an opponent, Steward C, who claims to be an engineer and works in India. He desperately wanted to communicate with me via the HANGOUT app. Since I didn't want to, he became abusive and threatening. I read that it is used by scammers. BE CAREFUL!!

LW · Answer

Here's what you find in the regulations:

As part of the services, we offer you the possibility to play with your friends or other like opponents who generally match your overall skill level in the game. These opponents can be automatically generated players who resemble and play like real people.

If you encounter your dream Scrabble player, it is probably a robot; when it seems too good to be true, it isn't true. Leah G, Robert E, etc. are all automatically generated profiles, and it's quite fascinating because they mimic your play and anticipate your expectations—in short, the perfect partners who are always available and often let you win. It doesn't seem very legal to me (breach of trust, creation of false identities from photos purchased in image banks), but Scrabble Go (Mattel) safeguards itself with the terms of use mentioned above, not very pretty at all.

Scheater · Answer

Adventure on Scrabble Go. Little Scrabble in English with Thomas. And as I was bored, I decided to start a conversation on the game's chat. Thomas replies to me... he is alive, he is not a robot. What a joy!!!! He We exchanged messages for 20 minutes and decided on a simpler way. And there we are on WhatsApp. Him in the USA (verified American number) and me in France. Zero risk.  He was from Washington DC... blah blah blah. A few sentences later, I receive a portrait of him, simple, with his cat that matched his profile picture and his bio: widowed, no children, working in Houston in OIL. CARRAMBA!!!$$$$. OK, very well. Why not.  I was very happy to correspond in English (written only). And of course no photo from me, but I told him I was single.... anyway And then, strangely, he kept asking me pretty much the same thing, if my day had been good, if I slept well, if my day had been good, if I slept well.... no more interesting conversations. Just repetitive phrases...... and then suddenly, he started calling me Babe (baby). TRUE LOVE. HE HAD FALLEN CRAZY IN LOVE. Seriously.  Haha. A flood of hearts and love declarations.  OK, I got it. It was a trap. Bye bye Mister Thomas.
