I spotted a number of recent ad revenue generating spam posts on some r4r-type subs recently. I reported them all and commented on 3, 2 in /r/ForeverAloneDating and 1 in /r/MakeNewFriendsHere. Links:
This spam is bad because:
The posts are not real. They are a waste of the community's time.
They are generating ad revenue for themselves using a free medium. I guess that really only matters if you're ethically opposed to that kind of behavior.
Linked website may contain viruses or some such malicious mechanism.
If you ever encounter a post like this:
DO NOT CLICK THE LINK
Instead you need to:
Downvote to lower visibility.
Leave a comment to warn others.
Report as spam.
You also have the option of PMing the mods to expedite the removal process. If you do, make sure to link the post.
EDIT: I'm all stickie now! :O
