Dealing with botters is pretty difficult form what I've gathered and 14 becoming so popular now it sadly means more bots.
Those are just the overseas gil farm bots.
If anything those are wiped out more often than others.

The real issue I think is the otherwise legitimate players using bots for repetitive tasks or extended grinding. They will cheat at an endgame level while the gil selling farms just have battalions of generic characters scripted through the game to farm as much gil as they can. Those are easy to stop. Stop buying gil.

Honestly it's nearly two separate and different issues here.
