Fake reviews

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15239678/?ref_=ext_shr

I don't know how to approach this. Someone is swamping Dune 2 with fake 9 star reviews. Most of them even have the same or similar titles using the word "Odyssey", Journey" or "Cinematic" or a combination. They are all worded the same with minor variations. There are too many to report. Is there anyone who can delete the lot? They all seem to have been posted today, yesterday and the day before. 

Thanks

Hi, sorry. I'm not very computer literate. I worked it out. The people joined within the past few days and only made one contribution, namely the fake reviews for this film.

Hello 

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.

Cheers!

This happened earlier this year, just bots adding it all, some of the reviews are exactly the same, it's more advanced now, they all gave scores to 20 other things in patterns (avoiding 10's) and even have A.I. created profiles on some, when they perfect it, they can embed thousands of hidden bots accounts here and do whatever they want probably for a fee. I hope IMDb can guard against that.
