    @cnk @deirdrebeth @trumpet For now these 4 email domains seems to be it, plus the "SAAR_" in the username

    It was a bad bot but super duper mega fast..

      Oof. A massive spam attack just now on mstdn.social

      A few thousand signups all accounts starting with "SAAR_"

      I STRONGLY recommend admins to BLOCK this name from signing up 🚨

                @stux At least those are easy to block. Very odd.

                @alterelefant @stux Exactly. I wonder if there is something we are missing. Maybe there is something else going on.

                  @stux From what I gather, they were spamming invites to a Discord room with the code "krebble" - they were trying to DDOS #KrebsOnSecurity, and I think they also doxxed one of their members.

                      @stux blocked a couple of those accounts already, got fed up with them continuously following me back after repeated attempts at removing them from my follower list.

                              @stux I've heard that instance is always under some kind of attack... is that true?
