DO NOT BOTHER THANKING THESE ACCOUNTS FOR WATCHES!!!!The
original deviant that owned this account sadly has been hacked or
left long ago.
Until very recently suddenly new and strange behavior started back up as of July 27th 2017. A quick glance from anyone paying attention could tell you this is not the same person using the account. Very little research is needed to conclude these are in fact bots click fishing. Their links have the (RU) extension. (A Russian website.)
It is a
click jack bot attempting to
bait people to click a dangerous link to jack their account, identity, IP, and bank account. There are
multiple of these accounts around, (Another few examples are
cmb8484,
missjonesmf,
thajoker and
kitjute.)
they are adding people to their watch to bring attention to themselves and see their link, hoping users passing by will click it out of curiosity. An art site like Deviant Art is perfect for link fishing! So many tasty Pay Pals and bank accounts to hack here. All these accounts have many things in common, they began their mass add watching on July 27th 2017, have very little prior activity... any they did have was years ago, do not reply, add deactivated deviants, post sexual website statuses (typically a Russian extension), and add hundreds of users a day to their watch typically in 10 minute intervals.
It's not too far of a stretch to believe each of these accounts are victims of clicking on a link and themselves getting hacked and turning into another bot like some kind of virtual zombie plague or cancer.
I also have reason to believe these are accounts possibly attached to a Yahoo email account and are victims of the billion user account crack a few years ago.
Read my journal and feel free to spread the word and help report these wicked accounts so they can't bait anymore helpless children on Deviant Art.
They are mass watching deviants to bring attention to themselves and bait them to click their link when users go to 'thank' the account for watching them. The bot is not perfect, and you will notice it also some how adds banned or deactivated accounts to it's watch. It also adds inactive deviants, deviants that moved accounts, and users with no art at all.
Feel free to spread the word and help report these wicked accounts so they can't bait anymore helpless children on Deviant Art.
