I'm seeing some sketchy stuff going on

[eternalgloom]

Spotted some major shady activity after seeing a strange post from devlin85 in my local Dutch sub section

I am pretty sure these are all sockpuppet account and everything they post is pure AI junk

They all updated their password at the same time and now the entire forum including the various local board is filled with AI junk

Be careful before doing any business with them

I’m familiar with these four accounts, I reported them for posting AI spam but they never got banned. I strongly believe that they are controlled by the same person. Whatever their motivations are for posting AI generic content on the forum, I know for sure they can’t get into a signature campaign with their history, eventually they will give up the accounts.

What's the problem with those accounts and why did all of them decide to wear Rainbet signature and avatar. Is it an indirect attack on the campaign for people to start calling the campaign a spam campaign?

Almost all those accounts are tagged, so why are they still struggling to be posting with AI. It's obvious, no manager is going to hire them.[/list]

From what I can see, bournekin & fortelen are the newest addition to the farm. Both accounts woke up last month, and immediately started wearing signature even though they are not in any campaign, I think it’s a pattern with these accounts. They want to give false impression that they are in a paying campaign so forum members and campaign managers would view them as somewhat quality posters.

I have read about this pattern before. I remember now...
But if I were to be a campaign manager, I would rather give someone not wearing signature a chance over someone in an active campaign already.
To them, wearing a signature is a passport to getting income campaigns, forgetting that campaign managers check out alot of other things including post history and how often one earns merit.

You're into something, i already tagged 4 them (2 tagged just yesterday) since they spam unhelpful/generic post on technical board.

For this user, i tried reporting many of his spam posts.

At this point, only permanent ban/nuke can stop them.

I don't feel like going through 600 posts to report them, so I just clicked Ignore on all 3.

I usually do that. But one of them flood board i usually visit, so i just tried to report it.



Although these days i don't expect too much.

Edit: Many of them marked as good, but i don't see the user receive permanent ban/nuke.

I wouldn't be sure about that. I know there are at least one campaign that sometimes associated with hiring spammer and even probable hacked account.

The pattern seems to be all the accounts are controlled by the same person, though there is not enough evidence of connecting accounts and abuse signature campaigns. Because I have checked on the Rainbet current spreadsheet, but they aren't paid participants. Not sure what the goal is of wearing Rainbet's signature voluntarily without any payments. Hhampuz isn't stupid to hire AI spammers, and probably he doesn't bother whoever is wearing the signature out of the spreadsheet.

I don't think these spammers have gotten any permission from the manager to wear the signature. The manager may not know who has been wearing the signature willingly without payment. So the goal of wearing a signature by these spammers remains unknown.

Hhampuz has already commented on this issue in December. These accounts are not part of the campaign, but that hasn’t stopped them from wearing the signature. Like I said before, their end goal is to cover their post gap and get into a signature campaign.

I saw a similar pattern, probably towards the end of last year if I recall well, but I didn't get enough time to investigate further. The account woke up at close time intervals and then wore Rainbet signatures without applying for the campaign.

I believe this is a trick to post around different boards so it does not raise eyebrows since they are wearing signatures.
The person behind them is taking advantage of the many participants in that campaign, so it's hard to know who is just wearing the signature for cover

I don't know if LoyceV or any technically gifted member can create a tool that can scrape through accounts wearing Rainbet signatures. I am sure we could get more accounts.

Good catch. This one specifically has already been banned for wearing signatures until November 17, 2026. So, that's one account he won't be able to profit from.
Since these bought accounts can wear whatever signatures they want, which could potentially damage that brand's reputation, I think the ban on wearing sigs would be the most optimal solution.
I'm guessing that only happens when an X amount of their posts gets reported?

Yes, I know Hhampuz very well; he is very careful when selecting participants. If their goal is to prove being active, they might even continue spam posting without even wearing a signature. Most probably they have something else on their mind. Unless they wore the signature, even we might not notice them as a signature spammer. I think they wear the signature to convince other managers when they apply for another signature campaign. So the manager would get confused and might think they are a good poster at least since they have been wearing the Rainbet signature that is managed by Hhampuz.
