Out of 21,708 users that commented in the 7 day period more than 10% were comment spamming for profit with their own, rented, or borrowed vote trails. While I haven't checked every account, I'm sure 99% are using delegated SP from @steem.
These are accounts that have a pattern of abuse. With the exception of one account the same pattern of abuse is spread across multiple accounts.
Some of these accounts have payouts removed already but a large number do not. I flagged some myself before I got discouraged when I only made a tiny dent and used 40% of my delegated VP.
I am human and spent 10 hours sifting through these accounts. If someone has been listed by mistake please DM (Direct Message) @spaminator on steemit.chat or leave a comment below.
