Hi!
Just to make you all aware that we've seen a spat of bots crop up in the last 48h pushing Z Grills content and we're asking users to stay vigilant.
Example of one of the bots up on r/smoking (Might as well ping u/1010101110 as well!) with a look into their hidden post history showing their other bot/spam activities elsewhere on Reddit:
This \"hidden\" post history plugging a botting site for Twitch.
Oh look more \"not adverts\" ..
even gambling sites, because of course it would.
We'll sweep spam posts up as soon as we catch them, but please report anything or anyone that smells fishy (unless it's smoked of course)!

I really don’t get why z-grills has to be so shady on social media.
They make decent budget grills. Run on that. Don’t pull shady shit.
u/ApizzaApizza just pinging you as well as I know BBQ has also been targeted in the past as well.
Even if I was interested in buying a Z Grill, knowing they use these kinds of nonsense tactics to drive sales confirms I’ll never send my money their way.
Bots? On Reddit? No way! /s
Z Grills asked me to make posts on here for a pretty decent sum of money. I told them I didn’t have a Z Grill and they said that didn’t matter.
I fucking knew it. I’ve seen like 4 separate posts the last two days in this sub that mentioned the 700d4 model all mentioning specific features because their “friends” have it and it seems like a great smoker or asking the “is their 10 grills deal really legit???”
Welp… definitely never buying from them.
They are far from the only bot spam on this sub. Every other day seems to be the same question about comparing the same 3-4 grills.
