Over the past week we've seen a noticeable uptick in men joining, following dozens of accounts with female avatars, and then messaging them directly.

Some appear to be real people, some are fake accounts with stolen identities.

Either way, this is stalking and harassing behaviour, and we have zero tolerance for it.

For those affected by accounts we fail to catch, please report them. We _will_ take action, and you'll help keep the community safe and welcoming for all.

Diolch.

@jaz One thing we use to locate them normally is they forget - OR don't know - DM'ing here requires them to change privacy level on the post...and many others see what they're trying to do.

I've seen - and reported - accounts doing this.

When they learn that factoid, we'll move on to other tactics to catch and report them!
