@psuLemon I'm not sure if MFP will be able to find a way to fight this new Spam Trend I am seeing - they hijack the comments session of MFP Blogs. Here is a good example of a Blog that has been Hi-jacked by a Spammer.
@sugaraddict4321 new form of Spam hitting the Friend Request's, might be from Hacked accounts.
Personally I call it Spam Porn - due to the type of profile pictures that are being used.
Getting multiple - repeat requests and other friends have reported the same type of request.
I wonder if this user profile was hacked - due to the fact they are not a recent member of MFP as reported by others.

@psuLemon Looks like the Spam is still happening in the Blogs.
It's an older Blog so maybe it has been reported to you already.

I think I zapped them all, looks like an old/ inactive legit account was hacked.

I had one with a link to a tinder profile but it said the account was opened in 2016 so I wonder if it was hacked

I think they've been zapped, they're not showing in a search.
