X by Musk: Porn spam fake girls with fake male names

The scam porn spam phishing gangs that fill X with like spam sometimes do it to you in rapid succession with multiple accounts that have the same display name, which I think might be to confuse you into thinking you have blocked and reported them all when you actually overlooked one. Sometimes you get multiple spam-likes from multiple accounts with clearly different names. 

Sometimes you get like-spam from accounts with female looking pictures and male looking names. Since nearly all the like spam comes from female presenting fake accounts, the use of a male name with an otherwise female presenting fake account might be done intentionally to trick you into thinking it is a legit account when you're looking in your notifications at a profile picture too small to see clearly.  The Joe Mitchell fake account here is one such. 


They are coming in so fast that I can't write a blog post and share it as fast as the like-spamming pornbots appear. 


Advertisers take note: There is so much porn and crypto-scam phishery on X you can't stop your ads from being associated with such criminal and annoying activity. 

I'm a long term use of Twitter and X, and I like some kinds of porn and I've owned some crypto, but I don't like fake engagement one bit. 

It's very common for ads in posts on X, if they allow replies, to have replies from criminal scammers and phishers. The connection between your product, your brand, and repulsive dishonesty will be established in your ads' readers. This will happen until Elon has X stop the spam problem.
