Fake account spammers are still getting in

Drake Settsu Project Manager / Blogger Hi, United States

I noticed the spammers are using real pictures and entering nonsense information in the Resume/Bio. They are also getting cute with the fake names they are using.

The 1-800 guys are still getting in with ovious fake accounts and spamming. So hilarious when they comment on their own spam posts.

I have a bad feeling that these spammers are on a reconnaissance mission and plan to launch a DoS on this website.

They must have nothing better to do with their lives.

The site administrators need to act fast before they do some harm. It is getting annoying.

Hello all,

We are aware of the spam situation and are taking many measures to get this under control. Please understand that we moderate and monitor the site regularly and already have features and reporting in place to protect our members and our community.

To keep the focus on what we're all here for (the love of project management!), I'm going to close the thread. After all, we wouldn't want spammers to derail us from getting things done, would we?

Thank you for caring about our community!
