What is going on with all the spam since last night?

[OvaHere]

Can I suggest MN put a temporary word filter on the terms 'wet', 'young' and 'pussy'!

[YesItsMeIDontCare]

I hope not. My cat is not old, and given the recent weather...

😂

[Lockheart]

I've seen this spammer pop back up under at least 3 different names today!

MNHQ tech support is probably minimal at the moment, it being a Sunday.

Fair point. Or maybe you'll have to get creative with words.

[EvilOnion]

It's been happening since yesterday evening - same wording but different username.

[Lockheart]

Has anyone clicked on the link though, that's the main question. I'm curious what it takes you to but not brave enough to click it myself

Anyone fancy performing this public service?

[RickiTarr]

Poor MN. It’s like whack a mole.

I always report these kind of things ticking the spam box. I think this faster. Is that right?

[YesItsMeIDontCare]

Infantile soggy moggy?

That would probably be more accurate tbf.

[OvaHere]

I dread to think what happens if you click.

Best case scenario it's a RickRoll.

After you. I’ll hold your, erm, face mask?😷

I clicked one just now
I didn't read the content, I was working my way down the links looking at coatigans and clicked
Disgusting cartoon of women with god knows what coming our of their vaginas. I didn't hang around long enough to see what it was, got off and reported

That's what I've been doing. Almost every thread on my threads I'm on is full of it. Cant deny they are putting the ground work in for whatever is on the other side of the link!

[TheQueef]

No one, not even the poor, sad specimen trawling Sunday mumsnet for wank fodder is clicking the link.

HQ should click it.

The Sunday award for Bravery & Taking one for the Team goes to...

I’ll keep doing that then. Bit weird to target a Mums’ site.

Cartoons? Seems odd, and gross.

I’d run your anti virus, just to be sure.

Given what @WhoNeedsaManOfTheWorld discovered it makes sense if the aim is to harass a bunch of women. Probably some amateur teen programmer trying out new bot skills from his bedroom.

[RickiTarr]

Ah. That makes sense. Tragic little twerp. 🙄

Yes definitely run the AV program.

Re. the spammer from around 20-30 minutes ago, I use the app on an iPad and did the iOS trick of pressing and holding the link to see a preview. It appeared to be some sort of dating site, but it could have been a front for fuck know's what,so I was not going to investigate further

[WhoNeedsaManOfTheWorld]

Thanks to the poster who suggested checking
My phone is clean
I will be more careful with random clicking! I was only interested in a coatigan
