Very suspicious FCs found on every server

I was digging around on the lodestone and came across very suspicious FCs. I have no idea how to report or escalate this to the appropriate people; however, someone should investigate this.

The original forum post is here:

I don't want to make any unfounded accusations, so I will leave it to your imagination as to what the purpose of these fcs are.

Here is an example of a suspicious FC:

Here is a query you can run on the lodestone to return many similar, suspicious FCs. Note there are also some legitimate FCs (false positives) in the results of the query.

And people complain on the low mob drop rate well here's the reason bots gota make it harder for them to farm stuff to sell for Gil so it ends up making it harder for real players especially leatherworker.

It's is so obvious that the only reason i can think of for not getting ride of them is cause SE wants their sub fees! -.-

Yeah this isn't nothin new, maybe just more of em now and using free companies. Every now and then when I was gathering, I would see a group of blm just standing by a zone, never moving, going in and out of instances. I'm guessing it was guildhests, it was always four of them and they came out rather fast. Creeped me the hell out.

So yea, gil farmers... Or the lalafell reckoning is upon us. We're all going to die.

I find it even more odd that there is an FC on that list with 174 members and not a single one cracked 50. It's almost as if some kind of Jonestown Massacre happened or the earth swallowed them up one day.

edit: I stand corrected. Apparently one BLM made it to 50. He was probably the one responsible for triggering the Great Reckoning.
