For the sake of listing the suspicious ones:

https://pagure.io/JordanWolf/JordanWolf

Note: smooge says "it gets cleaned up regularly." He did not mention "how often" ;-)

I marked them as private, but feel free to delete and take action against the spammer account.

@vashirov I disabled their account now. Thanks.

@toracat Deleted JordonWolf, it was definitely spam. The other one seems like someone testing.

@carlwgeorge I deleted MyFin, it was definitely spam. The other one again seems like someone testing, not really any content, but not any spam content either.

If I missed anything on any of those, feel free to reopen.

The description of https://pagure.io/hotnewcontent includes a link to https://www.hotnewcontent.com. Based on the content of that website, I'd definitely call that one spam.
