New spam style #189

Closed trainman419 closed 5 years ago

trainman419 commented 5 years ago

Spotted a new style of spam today. This post was created about two months ago and looked like a genuine question, but was edited today to be some kind of advertisement: 313327

I don't think anything about our moderation style needs to change; just thought other moderators should know so that they can be on the lookout for this kind of thing.

Thanks for flagging it @trainman419 that's definitely a new approach. I do hope that our notifications are enough to catch this sort of attack and that people flag them appropriately. I'll close this for now as there's no real follow up.
