I've recently got some strange whispers like "Hi (my name), are you there?" from different level 1 characters when I've left the bot on. So I've probably been reported for botting now and therefore I'm having a break with the whole bot thing. So my question is if you guys know when it's safe to start bot again? Blizzard is probably watching me atm, but when will it end? When can I safely start botting again or will they keep an eye on me forever since I've probably been reported?
 
The level 1's that whisper you are usually gold sellers, they start out every single time by saying "Hi, are you there?" and if you respond youll get a spam macro with their gold offer. They wont bother to report you :)
 
Oh okay thanks for the info! I guess I can continue now.. if I dare :) But just incase it actually was someone who reported me, how long should the break be? Good thing to know.
 
just download badboy and put it on lvl 85 no one can whisper u only the friends on your friend's list.

Nobody can answer to this question exept people working for Blizzard in the dedicated department. Btw, using badboy to spam messages and block people who are not in your friendlist is very bottish. Only botters do this (blocking level < 85 messages). Botting is everything but safe. Moreover, stop botting (this means changing your gaming habits aka you were botting 4h per day everyday then you suddenly stopped) after someone reported you is very very strange and is like admitting you are using a bot.

Keep botting "wisely": don't undercut people all the time, dont spam the AH, if you see someone in the same zone all the time, bot in an other zone. In other words: don't make other people angry. If you don't annoy other people, theres no reason for them to report you but even if you play like this someone will always report you but one, two, six report won't lead to a ban.

About these level 1 whispers there are 2 options:
-The same person is creating different level 1 chars and is trying to scare you (he is probably using a bot or else he would have /w you with his level 85). In every cases he didn't report you: who would report someone for botting then creating a level 1 char ? This makes no sense.
-Chinese bot trying to find new customers.

In the end these whispers will never come from different "legit" players. Chinese gold seller or botters.

Probably not reported so, keep farming for MoP :)

I get these all the time and yes they are gold sellers. If you don't want to get banned, try to go easy in uldum hour-wise if you're on a high pop and you should be good =)
