Timeline for Spam Profiles are getting my goat. Could we have better tools for mods to deal with profile spam?

| Dec 5, 2017 at 11:35 | comment | added | TRiG | The number begins 1-844. In the UK, all mobile numbers begin with 07. Generally, 18X numbers are special, either premium rate or free or always count as local or charge per call rather than per minute or something else special. | |

attack against the number, not the site?

Considering the strangeness I wonder if its an attempt to soften up the target, check if its 'soft' and then spam. Certain aspects of this seem oddly targetted towards the SE 'architecture' - like the quick name changes, and focusing on profiles. | |
