That profile has been deleted, but I screwed up. They were in the middle of sending out more PM's, so I deleted the profle right away. I should have banned them, then unsent all the messages they put out there, then banned them. I can't unsend the messages since I deleted the profle first.

Not sure how these people are getting by our spam filters.... but they are. Keep reporting them as soon as you see them.

We changed over from google recaptcha to hcaptcha a couple months ago which has stopped a lot of spam accounts, but looks like a new type is getting through. I'll do some tuning on the detection. Maybe we have a grace period where brand new accounts can't DM for a week or something.

As Greg said, thank you for reporting them!

I didn't see a way to report from the PM screen. Is there an easy way to report these spammers?

If you look at the bottom, left side of a PM there's a 'Report' button. That sends myself and the Mods a notification, so we can ban the spammer and delete the messages ASAP.
