How we can stop these scammers who are asking for upvote for upvote, follow for follow??
There is no direct way to stop someone on steem for anything since there is no censorship built into the blockchain. however we can do a few things that can discourage them

1) Flag them which will help some powerful whales to track them if needs be.

2) We can ignore them completely. once they see that their efforts are not being met with a respnose they will stop doing that and instead use the same energy to write better comments.

@abdulmanan ·
But in my point of view Flagging can never be a good idea, because it can hurt your ego, and if your ego is hurt, then you can't do good. They will keep flagging you, I know their flag worth nothing, but it still irritates you.
yeah, ignoring can be a solution but here also we need to explain each and everything first then and if they don't work correctly then we have this option, thanks for your view @sarah249
