    Flickr Spam

    Has anyone else noticed an increase in Spam accounts on Flickr recently ?
    I've been getting followed by a rash of nubile young females lately and it's starting to get a bit annoying , needless to say they've been blocked......

      Oh dear there I was thinking it was my magnetic personality and superb images that was attracting them to my photo stream [emoji6]

                  Jeff I've just blocked two followers. This is one of their pages, better be quick as it will probably get removed soon.

                      Blimey, she is well over exposed..

                      I must admit I have a follower that has some raunchy images, though done in good taste and not totally nude, he has an eclectic mix with all sorts of subjects covered, I even commented on one of his female model shots as he had managed to shoot her at a window and had got a perfect light balance and that is hard to do.
