Tumblr aware of its spam problem
The blogging platform acknowledged it’s facing a barrage of spam posts and fake accounts, but it has to publicly explain what it plans to do about the spammers.
Addressing a specific concern from a journalist, Tumblr discussed a recent increase in spam blogs and is “doing everything we can to quickly suspend these blogs and to keep more of them from being created.”
The problem lies with fake accounts created to “like other people’s Tumblr posts,” as TechCrunch reports. “It’s not all that different from the problem where spammers infiltrate blog commenting systems to link to their sites, or the now nearly discarded system of using Trackbacks to indicate when someone else has linked to your post from theirs.”
Tumblr has yet to publicize the problem on its official blog, but word leaked of its customer service department dealing with complaints about the spam. The associate producer of NPR’s Fresh Air, Melody Kramer, runs a blog for the popular program hosted on the Tumblr platform, and she had to deal with a deluge of spam posts, and was compelled to contact Tumblr. A customer service rep replied, “We’re aware of a recent increase in blogs with odd URLs that are following large numbers of users…The fact that one or more of these blogs has Followed you, Reblogged your content, or Liked your content will not compromise the security of your Tumblr account or the security of your computer in any way.”
Tumblr claims it hosts 30 million blogs and 40 million posts per day but now with news about rampant spamming, it’s unclear how many of those posts were created by fake accounts.
