Spam attack over the weekend?
Did anyone else get loads of email notifications of spam posts all over the forum at the weekend? I had over 50 emails from Wrike that were notifying me of new posts all over the forums. What is Wrike going to do about stopping this happening again? I don't want to unsubscribe from new forum post notifications as this is normally a very useful feature.
Yes I also received bunch of emails.
Yeah, I had over 800... I am also curious about how this will be prevented in future.
I received over 150 emails from the Betas and More and the Wrike Mobile forums. I reached out to Wrike support and was told this:
I would definitely appreciate a more formal communication from Wrike in regards to this; what happened and how it can be prevented in the future. I thought maybe they'd have sent an email about this or made a post in the Community, but perhaps they also woke up on Monday morning to this surprise.
Thanks all - it's a shame that Wrike haven't addressed publicly addressed this issue - it's apparent that many people were affected by this, and it's not a good look for the platform that it was allowed to happen!
Interestingly, all my comments are put into an approval pending status before becoming publicly visible. I suspect this is a countermeasure to this weekend's events. Again, there's been no communication of this though! Is anyone else seeing this?
Phil Taylor Yes, I am seeing the same thing. I agree, this is probably their countermeasure.
