Title: We've been spammed
Post by: hbelkins on January 19, 2023, 03:41:29 PM
Mods, please check out the spam post in the "Florida's color shields" thread. I already used the "report post" function.

Wonder if that particular spammer found us through the postings about crypto in the now-locked scams thread?

I saw this yesterday or the day before (6:xx AM EST), but under a different account with 1 post rather than a hijacked account. The Telegram username appears to be the same.

I already reported it...Was hoping for a new shield find.

Interesting. The account was active in 2017, posting halfway normal things and failing to upload images properly. Then it was inactive for a few years before posting the one spam message. My guess is the user had a shitty password and a spammer was able to guess what it was.
