MASSIVE amounts of phishing messages - easy fix suggestion
Bungie Help,
I've noticed a metric ton of new messages from accounts that are new, I'm talking hours old. Do you know how to make all these flooding spam messages go away?
Time delay before being able to message or make LFG posts. Make it an in-game requirement. Cannot send messages on bungie.net for the first month, and for LFG you can do it day 1 but only after you progress a certain amount in the base game.
I'm talking 10-20 messages a week from spam accounts. Also, take a look at the LFG posts for popular activities and you'll see (foreign owned) websites they're advertising which have all been link scanned by two different anti-malware programs. Each website has tracking cookies which is normal, but also have keylogging .exe files that attempted to ninja themselves onto my WinVM. That's not so normal.
It's probably low-priority, but it truly is a simple fix. If you would like, I can show you the formats their account-making bots use to easily identify the bot accounts. But also the messages and content they spam out should be enough.
Please reach out to me if you would like amplifying information, or if there is anything else i could help with. Just trying to prevent some people from getting scammed or worse.
