Oops. I just see that I did not report this message, but only other garbage created by the same person.

@Bernard: Ubuntu is not the only user of Launchpad. In theory the person and the groups could belong to some other project (like Yade, Madgraph etc.).
"Nothing to do with Ubuntu" is a wrong argument against a user or a user group. "Dubious contents" of course is valid, and that's the case here.

@Manfred Each of the groups are owned by the spammer.
From chat to dating sites to Craigslist to Backpage adds.
None are part of any Ubuntu applications, just clarifying.
Thanks for the information, changed.

Hi Bernard (wish you a happy new year!), thank you for reporting spam to us. Whatever was not handled when processing Manfred's spam report question mentioned above, I have processed those, removed the spam content, and suspended the accounts of the users who posted it.
