spam team: on the job

[branchandroot]

I would just like to thank the DW spam killing team: overnight I got one of those idiotic "contact me with your credit details so I can send you money from overseas" personal messages, and by the time I logged in this morning the user was already suspended.

*kisses to the spam team!*

But those Russian spam bots are SO ENTERTAINING!

Hee. I was the one who suspended it, so you're welcome! (And I will point the rest of the team to this entry, too.)

I actually got a spammy-looking follower in my profile last year not long after I created my account on here, and I immediately reported the account. I honestly wasn't crazy about reporting, but after looking through the form with my screen reader I decided to give it a go. The way I found out it was a spammer was by clicking on the account name. I forget what exactly I saw, but something about collecting false money or something along those lines. But anyhow, when I checked the next morning the user was banned. So thanks Dw spam team! I absolutely love this site! Never gotten comment spam though, but if and when I receive it I know what to do.
