Spam links in notes

Ahem, Kragith will now present his findings...
So it appears there's a hack bot afoot here on FA, two accounts now with the same note matching word for word asking to talk with me and then saying something about expanding my views and or image to a broader audience. Then a bit ly link.
Look never click anything from anyone you don't know, it's always a trap. Right now phishing emails, scams and other things related are high. Their damaging to unexpected and sometimes just annoying.
From Amazon scams to the more popular PayPal "account compromised act now!" scams here's a tip.
Big companies will alwayse use your FULL Name when they greet you, NEVER will they use your email address to greet you.
Also check for spelling mistakes and odd grammar in emails, another sign is "your account has 2 unknown transactions act n0w to secure your account." followed by a click link.
From spelling to grammar to simply using numbers instead of letters or designations, these are some signs of fake emails and phishing scams.
Unknown phone numbers never answer them, trap! If it's someone important they will leave a message for you. If they call back to back yeah answering it may be good, desperation is normally a real person. A call center moves onto the next phone buddy rather then call you back normally.
Notes here on FA, unless you've commissioned someone or use this site as a chat service "cough go to discord cough"... Never EVER click any links sent to you, don't even respond. If it's someone who actually wants to talk you know the drill.
