I watched this article [1] get submitted in various forms multiple times per day by accounts with Indian-sounding names.
One submission shot up to +15 within 10 minutes of being posted but was quickly deleted by the HN admins.

If there is a way to see HN submissions that have been deleted it's very, very easy to see.
EDIT: LOL it has since been changed to both Flagged and Dead since I have commented. It was not that way 3 minutes ago. C'mon guys...Dead can only be set by admins. Comments @dang ?
Once something is [flagged], it automatically becomes [dead].
