Hey, "Sneaky Pete" is a very legit name...for a pool cue.

Spam bots don't need you to SEE the spam links, they just need them to be there, because it helps when the webcrawlers come by and see the links sitting there.

If you want to see this in action, here's a spammer that has been working for a few weeks unnoticed...

Silly worthless comments scattered all over, then go back 2 weeks later and edit in a link. No one notices...well, no human here notices. Webcrawler bots sure do notice through, and the spammer gets paid.

Oh, mods, please ban this spammer. :)

I posted a WTB rear reflector, Danny jewelry responded to call him
Looks to me to be spammer.

^^^ I would be very wary of that one.

This guy is now encouraging texting off platform in reply to WTB ads FYI. still no pictures of the correct muffler I'm asking for that they have 'used'

Username dannyjewelry responded to my WTB.
As above, provides number for text.
Awkward overly friendly wording RED FLAGS
Searched UN and found this thread…

I got a reply to my WTB thread as well - different text number to reach him at. This guy must have a lot of phones!

Hi, how is it going? I have one for sale in great shape. For fast response text is the best to reach me 828-515-430eight

Closed until Matt decides.

User was coming in through NordVPN - surely a spammer just trying to get around new user post count.

Should I delete?

I don't want to step on anyones toes, at least more than usual!
