Can we get rid of the Fediverse Chick already? This is starting to get on my nerves 😅

Got the message + reports from about a dozen different servers already. Always the same message, always that frustrating "Hi, I'm Nicole! But you can call me the Fediverse Chick :D"
If there wasn't that damn smiley at the end, it would be more annoying. At least we have the ":D"
I haven't recieved any of the spam myself but based on some data I have from my instance, I strongly suspect somebody on the Fediverse is involved, most likely as the victim.
Just thought to add that it appears they may have had their account suspended, so there is evidently something which has been going on

@paul @rolle Just got a spam from @[email protected] so clearly this instance isn't really cleaning up their act
These two just went active a few minutes ago. I have been monitoring Nicole.

I remember last year, or so, @christian created a python script ( https://github.com/perryflynn/fediscripts ) to deal with some spam that detected images (hashed from @chris spam gist) that were being used for Mastodon spamming.
Has anyone tried to come up with anything that detects "fediverse chick" in the profile with a combination of Nicole for a username?
My small instance of Nicole, the Fediverse Chick, DM spam is growing
