"And in the end, of course, a true war story is never about war. It's about sunlight. It's about the special way that dawn spreads out on a river when you know you must cross the river and march into the mountains and do things you are afraid to do. It's about love and memory. It's about sorrow. It's about sisters who never write back and people who never listen." - Tim O'Brien, The Things They Carried |
Spammers/phishing bots are always looking for new ways around the system, and this appears to be their latest one. Notice how it appears to have been submitted by my own account, despite the fake email address.
Do not, under any circumstances, click a link that leads to “tumblrlinks.com” - It is straight up malicious and will infect your computer if you don’t have virus protection. If you receive a submission like this, do not publish it. Shoot an email off to support@tumblr.com and let them know.
This exact thing showed up in my inbox yesterday. It got instantly deleted. If it shows up in yours, I suggest you do the same.
I’ve got about ten of these chilling in my inbox. DO NOT CLICK
They pretty much spam accounts multiple times. I hope Tumblr is working on this…
Just be careful my faithful, wonderful followers.
I’ve had like 3 of these! I just thought they were shit anyway haha, pheuuuw
Be safe followers!
I’ve gotten like 5 of these. Sometimes they show up from my tumblr name with “staff” attached to either end, sometimes...
I kept getting these, too. I just turned off submissions.
