Spam alert!!! Some recent posts are very strange

Spam on Disboards or bad links

Yep - I reported it to the mods. All of a sudden I had a ton of alerts that looked wonky.

How do you report a wonky thread or poster?

I clicked on the "Report" link right next to the name and time stamp. It brought up a window where you can make a comment.

It's been happening in spurts over the last two days. They seem to get it under control, then it starts again in quick succession. I'm sure the mods are doing the best they can.

Best thing to do is report the post and RESIST the impulse to reply because that will just bump the post to the top of the forum where more can see it. Of course,everyone already knows to never click on any of the links in those posts.

Mods and Webmasters get rid of the spammers and scammers as soon as they are noticed. We are notified when a post gets reported so that report link does help.

Spammers/Scammers are banned but some of them just re register and try again. Eventually, they all move on because they do not get responses to the spam.

Thank you to all of you who report the offenders!

All those posts looked legit to me. I'm buying more points as soon as I get my $2.4 million out of that secret account in Nigeria. I just have to wire a small amount to cover transaction fees. What could go wrong??

You all are missing out!
