Spam and Bots

[phil bottle 9,822]

Just a quick note. I know we're all savvy, but just in case.

 

We get bots submitting posts with links. Today there's been a few.

 

We either remove the posts or the links as soon as we see them but just to say be careful of clicking links in any posts.

 

If you see anything suspicious, please report.

 

Just don't click on anything 🤗

 

Thanks @J4MES OX4D  and @Plumbers Crack  who do this regularly, it's a great help 🍻

My workplace is a bit OTT on cyber security training, but as I'm now advocating it myself something must have rubbed off. 

 

But still, that irresistible urge to click always gets someone in the end 😁

We, occasionally, "test" our employees on clicking things. Especially with passwords.

 

I work directly for the President & CEO of the company.

 

Every Executive I have ever supported knows they are never to touch anything about their passwords. They want their password? They ask me if they are too lazy to look in their password locker app.

 

What does my current boss do during IT Security week? She clicks the button and gets phished.

For the first time in a long time, I knew where the link was gonna go before clicking it 🤣🤣

We've had a few bots recently, be wary of posts from randoms and don't click on any links.

 

Cheers @J4MES OX4D  for reporting as usual ❤️

Cheers, I think I've removed them, but I'll double check later if I'm still alive 😁

Back to this topic again as we seem to be getting inundated lately 🙈🤪

 

Obviously goes without saying, take care not to click on any links from randoms until we get around to deleting them.

 

And thanks all for reporting when you find them 🖤👊

Hear hear @phil bottle. I do add some protection from keywords to try and stop as many as we can not even posting but it is inevitable we'll keep getting them over time. Like Philly the Great says, keeping reporting them.

 

Note, you can use a button instead of replyign to report content if needed. That sends an email straight away to all Moderators and Admins that a post has been picked up by someone that looks suspicious.

 

Thanks all GGFG ❤️🖤

Thanks for pointing out the report function, I’ll be sure to use that in future 🫡

What if it's a secret link to Diddums OnlyFans?
