I see your concern, but we haven't done this yet - we have no reason to. There is no actual reward for being the "richest", we could care less as to who claims the title.

If we ever auto-outbid people, they would find out right away, and wouldn't return to the site.

Also, how would people find out? You just need to "be smart" about it. Don't always use the same username, change how long you wait.

Anonymous submissions are allowed... so it could be you hit the nail on the head and they are doing this right now (and simply publicly denying for obvious reasons).
