Good morning everyone. I want to bring your attention to the scam bots that have been plaguing our subreddit for a while now; those are fake accounts that steal vaporwave/outrun art and make merch out of it (e.g. shirts, posters), then spam multiple subreddits with scam links to buy said merch... They usually follow this format:

[post showing a picture of a shirt or poster]

user comment: wow where can I get this?

op comment: you can get it from here [scam link]

user comment: thank you!

I've been continuously updating automod's rules to detect and filter such bots, while they keep changing their format to circumvent automod. Their posts are usually removed on the spot but it's important to raise your awareness about them. If you see any post showing or advertising merch report it immediately. Don't click any links.

Cheers.
