Yeah, we've seen them from many members, Mods included. About all you can do is report the post and we'll hammer them and any PuPs we find.
Sorry about that mate.

no they aren't the spammer, they are also being spammed by the spammersReport them.
I know. But by you pinging @CherryRook in this thread, hopefully they'll get the message to report the spammers.

Hi there,I know. But by you pinging @CherryRook in this thread, hopefully they'll get the message to report the spammers.
I got a lot of spammer messages recently. Some new accounts were created by someone to send the sexual spammers to me and @w_tapper . Even now, new spammers coming while I reply to this thread. Any solutions? Like banning the IP? I think all these spammer accounts are owned by a single one.
I do really hope you guys can realize how creepy and uncomfortable it is. I'm using XDA from 2012 and I don't want to be disappointed for this.

We're really sorry for this harrassment and annoyances. I can assure you that we certainly look in detail into every account that gets reported but it's very important that those personal messages get reported.
If it's suitable to you (something that I can't assess) did you already consider to change "Start conversations with you" to either "People you follow" or "Nobody" in your privacy settings?

No need to watch my friend. He posted his spam about 7 minutes after your comment.
Consequently, he's on the train to "BanVille."

Easy on the lingo my friend. That spammer is someone's child too. Misguided, but still.

32Members, this thread is to report any found Spam.
And or hit the report button is also a great way to report the found spam, thanks in advance, for helping keep XDA clean.
Remember the Moderators are all in different time zones, and we are not able to be all over XDA even for some of us that do not have a life other than XDA, this is why we rely on those XDA Members to assist in either posting here or reporting the spam on the reporting system that goes to the Moderator Teams for those areas, and again we are all on different time zones on this World Wide Web.
>>>FOR MSG'S SENT VIA YOUR CONVERSATION (PM) INBOX ON XDA, DO NOT POST HERE, REPORT THE CONVERSATION VIA THE REPORING SYSTEM AND IT WILL BE ADDRESSED FOR YOU.
THANK YOU!11@The Merovingian

Thanks!10My standard tpv pm sent to many, many people:
Hi there,
Several of your 'thanks' posts have been deleted as it is obvious that you are trying to get your post count up to ten to post in the dev forums
Instead of spamming the forums with 'thanks' posts [which is against XDA rules] you would be better off hitting the thanks button. To get to ten posts, head over to the general Q&A section of your device or the main Q&A forum and answer a couple of peoples questions.
This has 3 benefits - win:win situation :
1. You get to help another member and get the 'feel good factor' by helping someone out.
2. Your post count will very quickly increase - there are many people out there looking for help and you wont get into trouble by spamming.
3. You may actually learn something new today by helping someone with a problem that you may not of known about yourself - remember Google is your friend (search).
So, go on, feel good today and help someone you dont know
Cheers.
Tim.
