Here's a new one, they actually posted a "story" advertising. It's on most recent. But this is their account

I'm really sorry folks but I've turned off reviews for now. There's been 25,000 new spam accounts in the last month and I just can't keep up with deleting all the spam reviews.

Thank you guys for always deleting them! I felt bad sending all the emails and I appreciate how much time that it takes to get rid of them!

Thanks for always letting us know. They are really hard to keep up with, but I know when you guys report them I will at least try to get rid of all the ones that particular bot left.

There's a spam story posted on Most Recent.  Mumbai's Escort Service... LOL.  I laugh, but seriously, so annoying!!!  I hate that you had to turn off reviews, but I definitely understand why you did.
