Has anybody else been getting spammed daily by Flickr during this last week or so?

I've had seven or eight different notifications that I've "been mentioned in a photo," and when you go there, it's a scantily-clad (or topless) babe trying to coerce you into clicking onto a link for a blog.

Now, whilst I've admittedly enjoyed looking at the picture of said lovely, I'm afraid my attitude towards the aforementioned blog is ...

Me too
Blocked around 15 or so.

Written to flickr no response.

Once blocked they should disappear but they don't.

Lets compare notes😂😂😂

I suppose it's better than being spammed by people selling new k-i-t-c-h-e-n-s.

Very Happy

they seem to have lost interest, still sat on the system under recent activity but nothing new since yesterday so maybe they move on elsewhere.... I would not mind not one of them was up to much anyway and certainly not worth opening yer piggy bank for[I said Bank with a B! Laughing ]
