<p>PSA: Scammers and phishers are now using open registration Pixelfed instances pretending to be Pixelfed support/admin/verification/payment processor/online store/moderators.</p><p>Tags: <a href="/tags/pixelfed/" rel="tag">#Pixelfed</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/socialweb/" rel="tag">#SocialWeb</a> <a href="/tags/opensocial/" rel="tag">#OpenSocial</a> <a href="/tags/socmed/" rel="tag">#SocMed</a> <a href="/tags/sns/" rel="tag">#SNS</a> <a href="/tags/moderation/" rel="tag">#moderation</a></p>

<p>Something to SNS providers and software can learn from the gaming industry is name filters.</p><p>Majority, if not all, online <a href="/tags/games/" rel="tag">#games</a> implement a RegExp-based or manual input name blocklist. In the socmed landscape, software like Mastodon should implement it to prevent any handles **and** display names with &quot;Mastodon&quot; in it.</p><p>Instance admins and moderators should be able to add new entries as they see fit. They can choose between RegExp matching or manual input.</p><p>It is an effective way to minimize fake accounts pretending to be the platform, instance, service, and/or software. For example, the Mastodon **software** is currently being bombarded by fake accounts about &quot;Mastodon account verification&quot;, with &quot;Mastodon&quot; in either their handle or display name, or both.</p><p>Other social media software and platforms should implement it as well. Of course, it is not the ultimate solution, but it at least adds another layer to enable admins and moderators to fight against scammers and phishers pretending to be official accounts or channels.</p><p>Tags: <a href="/tags/sns/" rel="tag">#SNS</a> <a href="/tags/socmed/" rel="tag">#SocMed</a> <a href="/tags/socialmedia/" rel="tag">#SocialMedia</a> <a href="/tags/mastodon/" rel="tag">#Mastodon</a> <a href="/tags/socialweb/" rel="tag">#SocialWeb</a> <a href="/tags/opensocial/" rel="tag">#OpenSocial</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/bluesky/" rel="tag">#Bluesky</a> <a href="/tags/atmosphere/" rel="tag">#ATmosphere</a> <a href="/tags/moderation/" rel="tag">#Moderation</a></p>

<p>In gaming, it is common for spammers to report legit accounts if they echoed back their own spam. We suspend them first to minimize the spam, go back to review it, and issue warnings if needed.</p><p>It&#x27;s the same in social media. Please refrain from echoing or &quot;revenge spamming&quot; a spammer. The spammers—and potentially non-spammers—will report you for spamming.</p><p>We then have to suspend your account to avoid further spams, and then go back later to review if you are indeed a spammer or engaging in &quot;revenge spamming&quot;.</p><p>- It is a hassle for you.<br>- It will be stressful once you receive a suspension email.<br>- It is also increasing our workload.<br>- It will paint your instance/community as &quot;bad&quot; or lacking moderation.</p><p>The only ones enjoying it are the spammers. They know they&#x27;ll get banned so they wreak havoc by confusing and stressing everyone.</p><p>---</p><p>I just so happen to be the type of moderator/GM in social media and the gaming industry who is reasonable, and takes the time to actually investigate. At least half in my line-of-work—voluntary or paid—are by-the-book. No investigation. If there&#x27;s evidence = ban hammer. Forget the context.</p><p>So, please do not engage in &quot;revenge spamming&quot;. Report the spammers and add them to your ignore list. We will get to your reports as soon as possible and suspend their accounts.</p><p>Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.</p><p>---</p><p>I believe I can say this is on behalf of all modertaors, admins, GMs, employees, and volunteers. 🖖🏽</p><p>Tags: <a href="/tags/moderation/" rel="tag">#moderation</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/socmed/" rel="tag">#socmed</a> <a href="/tags/socialmedia/" rel="tag">#SocialMedia</a> <a href="/tags/sns/" rel="tag">#SNS</a> <a href="/tags/socialweb/" rel="tag">#SocialWeb</a> <a href="/tags/opensocial/" rel="tag">#OpenSocial</a></p>
