https://kbin.social/u/Zamilhost has been posting a bunch of spam posts for free movie downloads with suspicious links that use a link shortener.
Edit: There is a second one. https://kbin.social/u/kolomonggo

There is now a third one but in french flavour. https://kbin.social/u/kolojengkeng
If this keeps happening I will have to make it into a list.

Edit heres another one. https://kbin.social/u/shareena
It looks like kbin is being targeted by bots I doubt that will be the last one.

They appear to have stopped for now.
The only one I saw is u/locutor99 which was created 11 hours ago but I am not sure if it connected to the other ones since the posts are about dubbing and not watching movies.
