Humble Request to IMDb Moderation Team:

Please kindly look into the suspicious reviews and ratings for this title. Many of the accounts posting overly positive reviews have usernames starting with the same two letters "fx", which strongly suggests fake or promotional activity. IMDb is trusted because people believe the ratings and reviews reflect genuine audience opinions. If fake promotional accounts are allowed to manipulate ratings, it undermines the authenticity of the platform. I humbly request that you review these accounts and take appropriate action, so IMDb continues to remain a place where viewers can trust the ratings and make honest decisions about movies and web series. Thank you for your attention. here's the title: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt24060686/

Hello rnagpal, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Our voting system already detects and defeats attempts to stuff the ballot and skew the rating, as demonstrated by the difference between the weighted average and the arithmetic mean on the vast majority of titles in the database. For additional information about IMDb ratings and weighted averages, please refer to our FAQ here: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/track-movies-tv/ratings-faq/G67Y87TFYYP6TWAV

Hello Fran, Thank you for your response. I understand IMDb uses a weighted average to balance ratings, but I kindly request you to take a closer look at this specific title: 👉 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt24060686/ In India, this show is not popular or widely discussed at all, yet its IMDb rating is showing higher than some of the biggest superhit Bollywood movies and web series. If you compare the rating of this title with genuinely successful titles in India, you will clearly notice the mismatch. This strongly suggests that the current reviews and votes may not reflect authentic audience opinion, but rather promotional manipulation. Please review the suspicious accounts and their reviews for this title, so that IMDb continues to remain a trusted and reliable platform for movie lovers worldwide. Thank you for your time and attention.

@rnagpal- Hi, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are aware that there are people who may vote for the sole purpose of trying to inflate/deflate the rating for a movie. We have several safeguards in place to automatically detect and defeat this type of ballot stuffing: even though we count and display all unaltered votes in the rating breakdown, we apply several countermeasures against all attempts to skew the rating for the weighted rating you see displayed on the site. We will review the title in question to ensure that the weighted average is displaying as intended. For more information on our abuse detection methods, or details about IMDb ratings and weighted averages, please refer to our Ratings FAQs: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/track-movies-tv/ratings-faq/G67Y87TFYYP6TWAV Cheers!
