While you're at it, you can probably nuke these two as well: ankr-buy-ankr (uid=3577844) avalanche-avax (uid=3577858) They share a similar usernames, nearly identical UID, the same MO, and have the same domain on their profile. Nuked, thank you! Some nice detective work here. I wonder if there is a reason to why they do this method. At times spammer moves make no sense to me at all.
The motives of the people behind this is most likely backlinks. They spam their links everywhere they can in automated/semi-automated/even manual ways because they somehow think that would make their websites more relevant/popular. Though probably most of the websites being SEOed like this spammy AND scammy.

That account has been already banned. There's been an increase in SEO spam lately. In this case, the first two posts of that account include a link. It's not the first time I've seen that domain being spammed around here (probably nuked around five accounts spamming the same domain). It can stay, as it discusses spamming from most likely bot accounts.
