I run a public Telegram news channel, but recently we got hit by a sudden wave of thousands of fake bot subscribers. I am really worried that Telegram might flag the channel with a scam tag or shadowban us because of these fake accounts. Deleting thousands of fake profiles manually seems completely impossible for our small team. Is there an automated tool that can audit subscribers and clean up fake profiles quickly? How do you guys defend your public channels against bot raids
Dealing with bot raids and fake subscribers in Telegram is a real pain. I had a massive bot attack on my channel last month. It almost triggered a red label warning from Telegram. I ended up using TGuard to clean everything up. It lets you clear out fake accounts in just two clicks. You get detailed analytics on subscription changes. It also sets up captcha checks for new members. It protects you against shadow bans and fake views during ad campaigns. That keeps your stats clean and genuine. It made managing my channel so much easier. You should give it a shot for your group. It saves a lot of time.
