Receiving spam via Public Mobile Private Messaging. Beware of spam from member: deborahF44

Ideally, deleting it's account would be appropriate

@CNP You should also block that account and report the post as inappropriate.

Best to have a moderator look at this issue by clicking ?, bottom right, follow instructions and submit a ticket.

@CNP Go to below the message: report inappropriate conduct...this will allow you to message a moderator who will respond very quickly. I have a feeling you got the same kind of town floozy message as i did.

@mimmo is this one of the accounts you asked the moderators to ban this morning?

Is this spam in the form of offering a referral code?

When I set up a community account for my other spousal line for the draw I was immediately contacted from a user that had no other posts to see if I had activated yet. I assume there are people that keep scanning the new signups to fish for referrals. Not pushy or aggressive or anything...I just recognized what was going on immediately.

Enterprising method though.

@srlawren no it was not. Suposdidly there were several accounts created using 2 ip addresses. Those have all been blocked.

Me too! I am super unimpressed. The user name is patriciaJ16 and this phone is for my 15 year old son. I am very glad that it was MY email that it went to and not his, super gross. Does anyone know if public mobile will block these losers?

Whew! Good to know i wasnt the only one targeted. However I did recieve a public apology after nominating the member for town floozy status....theres competition for the title? It's getting very competitive in the community nowadays....for every badge and position apparently.

I sent a message to the moderator but I don't see where to I can report a specific message? I find this site very difficult to navigate and I'm not completely technoligically unsavvy 😉

Re: Private Message Spam

darlicious — Tue, 24 Dec 2019 17:59:24 GMT

@mimmo It appears maybe 100's of accounts may have been made...when I just went to tag these town floozies multiple member names came up....this looks like a big problem is ready to explode...

@stackie371 If it's in private messages look to the bottom left of message for "report"
