Using social group anti-cheating algorithms, logistics empty package algorithms, and order-brushing funds network algorithms, starting from every link of order-brushing behavior, establishing a real-time big data risk control and auditing system covering the entire link, Alibaba is constantly upgrading its efforts to crack down on order-brushing behavior. From January 2018 to the present, Alibaba has monitored more than 2,800 credit speculation platforms, including 2,384 order-brushing QQ groups, 290 empty package trading platforms, and 237 order-brushing trading platforms. A set of data shows that among the group of brushers lurking in various platforms and communities, 54.6% of people under the age of 30 account for 54.6%, and a large number of college students and young people who have just entered the workplace were forced to participate. Order brushing has even developed from online to offline, and has entered colleges and universities through stalls and other means, and organized order brushers to simulate real purchasing behaviors to avoid online supervision crackdowns.
