Am I being spammed?

Asked by Pachy (18610points) June 5th, 2015

I see in the Lurve column that I’ve been added to someone’s fluther, but when I click on their avatar to read their “story,” I’m taken to a page that says they can’t be found. This has happened before. What’s the deal?

Yeah – that’s what it is.

I got the same lurve too. The difference is that I got to see the spammer and their spam. I flagged them all.

Or, the jelly you saw has been taken care of by the Mafia ~

Sometimes, a spam account will follow other users before we manage to close it down. That’s what those “phantom” follows are about. By the time you clicked on their avatar, we had banned this person.

Gee, and I thought I was just getting popular. ;-)

Thanks, all!

The person was a spammer who went through adding random people. They’ve been identified by the mods and sent to spam hell.
