Hi #SFBA folks,

We’ve temporarily limited mastodon.cloud due to a wave of phishing spam. If you’re getting tagged repeatedly, consider a domain block on mastodon.cloud if you are not following any accounts on that server.
Unfortunately you will lose your follow relationships if you do a domain block and are following accounts on there.

Because so many people on SFBA follow legitimate accounts on mastodon.cloud, we don't want to take such the drastic step of suspending it globally at this time.

Please keep reporting the problematic accounts as you see them. The @moderators are trying to keep an eye on the problem on the back end as well.
