The bots are evolving!!

Now I’ve seen bots with firstname-lastname combo with numbers in the middle, but even more odd are the ones without numbers at all… Some jumbled up almost-words that at first glance could be actual tumblrs. But when you click through to see their blogs, they look just like the old bots.

Apparently at some point the bots starts to leave comments with malware links on your posts if left to their own devices. I saw that in the wild today on someone else’s post.

Remember to report as spam and block!

I don't know how they're doing it, but bot accounts are following me without me getting a notification.

According to Tumblr, I have gotten 9 new followers in the last month but I found 15 bots that have followed me within the last month.

So I guess this is a friendly PSA. Check your followers list for bots even if you're not getting notifications of new followers because they're slipping past Tumblr's notification system.

Now THESE are the types of changes I like to see around here.

FYI to everyone, I've been getting a lot of new bot followers lately, but they don't show up on my activity feed at all. No 'you've got a new follower' email. Nothing. The only reason I've noticed them is because my follower count has gone up randomly. I've already blocked like 5 or so in the last couple days. Watch out for yourselves.

I feel like im watching a wounded deer struggle to get up but it’s just messy and dying slowly and painfully. Somebody put it out of its misery
