Spam Hunting was cool, but I think we need to up our game... I'm noticing a LOT of Scammers - people just straight ripping content and pasting it as their own. [EDIT: Please be careful around the scammers. It might not be wise to post on their stuff. Better to report and/or block.] Here's a great example: Original: noise.cash/post/1zvpxx8n Stolen: noise.cash/post/1jxvzz7m noise.cash/post/173k9r32 noise.cash/post/133qp9nz noise.cash/post/133qx6jg noise.cash/post/l73k2g7v Check the profiles for the "stolen" stuff and search their posts... just keep cutting back on the words in your search until you get results. You should be able to scroll down to the bottom of the results to find the REAL author - all the ones above it are likely "stolen" posts. It's way too much work for me to take on right now, but I hope to tackle this on my work break a bit. Ideally, I'll drop a comment on the original author's post with links to all the stolen posts so that they're aware that their content has been swiped. Then I'll grab the URL fro the original post, and report all the scam posts as "other" and mention "content stolen from [URL to original post]" The "sb" guys were annoying... but this shit is unacceptable on a whole new level. #SpammerHunters
