More spammers

[ffutures]

And another porn spammer, evagleason426. That's three today, the others being elianaabel447 and diamondpugh. They appear to be bots joining communities purely to post porn spam, all of them have existed for a day or two and joined hundreds of communities.

I've taken to comment-screening anyone who isn't on my FL, as well as reporting them.

I think someone's worked out a semi-automated process with real people in the loop: "Earn 25 cents per 100 captchas correctly decoded", that sort of thing.

They don't have to pay money. "Want to download this porn file: solve this captcha."

That's indeed another option. Get the really stupid ones who don't know how to find free porn on the internet to a) help you in your criminal scheme and almost certainly b) hand over the root to their PC when "you must download this updated codec to see this movie".
