Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Has anyone else been receiving scam messages lately? (startrek.website)

Over the past few days, I have received 2 identical scam direct messages from freshly created accounts on different instances (I immediately blocked user and messaged instance admins, with no response yet), namely aggregatet.org and feddit.rocks. I was wondering if others had experienced this issue, so I could see if it was an escalating issue.

You can, but you have to do it through the database, unfortunately. Just replace the actor IDs with the one(s) reported:

update private_message
set deleted = true
from person
where person.id = private_message.creator_id
and person.actor_id in ('https://lemmings.world/u/missy29', 'https://aggregatet.org/u/sognar');
