That doesn't explain the sudden sharp increase in these links. We're growing, but the growth rate didn't suddenly increase 10x like the rate of these links has

I could imagine that users that just stumble upon the site will be more willing to engage in this semi-destructible behaviour than users that got the site recommended from you or another early user. Can you see whether the users that do this end up being good citizens? That would shed some light on whether these are malicious accounts or just new users trying things out.
