Attention all Qoto users :

We are getting an annoying gang creating new accounts here simply to post ONE single post, a toot with a link to PIRATED video streams.

I have noticed the pattern, reported them as soon as I saw, and now have been DEKETING these m.f. as soon as I see it, n questions asked.

Please keep an eye out and REPORT any such account. Thank you!! 😜

Atención a todos los usuarios de Qoto :

Estamos recibiendo una banda molesta creando nuevas cuentas aquí simplemente para publicar UNA sola publicación, un toot con un enlace a las transmisiones de vídeo PIRATEADOS.

He notado el patrón, los he informado tan pronto como vi, y ahora he estado DELETANDO estos hijos de p. tan pronto como lo veo, n preguntas hechas.

Por favor, mantenga un ojo hacia fuera y REPORTE cualquier cuenta de este tipo. ¡¡Gracias!! 😜

@design_RG I've been trying to reduce this by also blacklisting the emails. It seems these accounts have been using throw-away emails, so i black list the email before suspending. As they run out of emails the attempts should get less frequent. Just make sure you check that the email goes to a domain that is clearly not a actual email service.

If you just delete the account and dont blacklist the email they will just keep creating it. Since I've been doing this it appears the frequency of the accounts is going down.

@freemo Will do, thank you. Those arseholes, just make more work for everyone.

@design_RG yea, though i find they are rare enough and go away if they realize its too much trouble.
