Is it just me has there been a lot of Spam and abuse on Lemmy lately?

Some women wanted to donate me her retirement savings so I open a homeless shelter in Germany but that's it.

pkjqpg1h@lemmy.zip

in lemmy.today account bio is

Parked account to deter impersonation and abuse on an Open-signups instance.

Please give some context about this @Buelldozer@lemmy.today

What's the relation with this account @Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Disclamer: There is many old account with same name but I just list the new ones

Draconic NEO

I created it a while back because I thought having the username occupied would prevent this sort of thing from happening. I was more naive back then and didn't think someone would be pathetic enough to use misspellings and lookalikes to get around that .

Draconic NEO

My legit accounts are as follows:

Yes I know this is excessive and I created many of them either when I was less sure of the Fediverse or because I wanted some activity separation in who I follow or communities I'm part of. And also because of Federation issues as well. I also was kind of hoping Lemmy would have something in the future where accounts like this can be merged into a single nomadic account. I had heard of something like that but I can't find it now

Prince Aster [He/They/Zir]

Wow... that... I have no words for that. That is beyond despicable. I had a feeling things were bad when I saw the governance thread but that's way way worse than I thought.

emopunker@feddit.org

Going through all the reports is a pain in the ass today.

emopunker@feddit.org

No I didn't, though. There is legitimately someone who has been doing this stuff for at least eight months now and I originally thought it was another antiyanks attack, but other admins told me that transphobia is untypical of antiyanks.

Also if you can link the account, I would gladly ban it at least from Feddit.

emopunker@feddit.org

No. I said I had the feeling that the accounts could be associated with each other. Also I never contacted Aster or any of the others in the screenshot. There is a troll trying to get both at me and at other users and trying to fan the flames.

pkjqpg1h@lemmy.zip

Thanks for information, sorry for this pathetic person. You didn't deserve this.

Lemmy instance admins please ban all other @Draconic_NEO @Draconic_NE0 @Draconic_MEO @Draconic_ME0 accounts in you instance

jubilantjaguar@lemmy.world

Now that is some enthusiasm for the fediverse.
