Virus Links Going Around on OSM

I got a few messages last night from “fake 18+ bots” that I was suprised they are on OSM, since they message me a lot on Instagram. Is this a new or old problem because I have only been a member for a year now and never had a problem with them until now.

Are these OSM messages sent from within openstreetmap.org? If so, I’d suggest reporting the user via the “report” button.

If not, let us know how these messages are being sent and people will be able to offer further advice.

I clicked on their accounts and it said it didn’t exist which was very strange.

I clicked on their accounts and it said it didn’t exist which was very strange.

That probably means that someone has already reported them for sending spam messages and they have already been deleted.
