Definitely too many. Hopefully, if they can't be deleted, they can at least be relegated away from the first page by other topics.

I agree we are getting a lot. I have just clicked through to the profile of some recent ones on this group, checked their profile where all I see is has joined interspersed with posts soliciting contact on WhatsApp or similar (and never certified), so I have flagged their profile, selecting the first reason, i.e. "Fake/Spam...". We should all do this to help the moderators/site owner find and remove this unwanted activity. I certainly will from now on.

I have set my own threshold for how many spam messages I see on their profile before I decide they qualify for flagging, I don't want to flag someone genuine who might accidentally look like a spammer, especially if they are new to the site (as most spammers are). We need to exercise judgement, but use the system to get rid of the worst offenders.

Well I can assure you I am for real. Happy to chat and even swap some pics...all for fun not money.

Been on here for years and now it seems most groups have some sort of spam on them. It's a shame.
