Another spam attack. I’ve flageged this post and the associated subreddit to the reddit mods as well.

The best thing you can do when you find spam on iNaturalist is to click “Flag As Inappropriate” at the bottom of the observation page and choose “spam” as your reason for why this is inappropriate. This will hide the observation from public view, and if a user has posted three observations that get flagged as spam, they’ll get suspended. In general, I don’t think it’s worth posting in the Forum about spammers unless you see some massive, unmanageable amount of spam from a single source. Then we on staff might take some additional actions like blocking IP addresses.
