All the junk threads about support numbers and cash apps. Why?

In case you're not aware, clicking the Report button and choosing Spam does have a useful effect, because it only takes a small number of this type of report for the post to be removed.

Wasn't aware but have been reporting, so I'll continue to do so. Thanks all.

Please do report them as spam.
A lot of my time is taken up deleting them, so the more help the better.
Thanks all.

As soon as I see one I start searching for others and marking them as spam.

They tend to appear within a few minutes of each other.The time stamp on the latest entry on each forum gives an indication of where they may or may not appear. Just spammed another one in this sub forum!

Is it possible just to block their profiles as gsssss seems to be posting a few threads.

Just hit report spam every time these things pop up.

Bumping due to the next lot coming through.

The spam message is in the title - the contents of the body are irrelevant.  The spammers want you to dial the fraudulent telephone number.

*** bumping to ask people to report the spam ***

** No need to explain to OP why as s/he has had good explanations **

Yes sometimes constantly reporting as spam. It takes x spam reports to delete one spam post.

Pity MSE could not make it that xx reports in total would delete all posts. 

Say spammer has 6 threads. One report against each would delete all etc?

@Hasbeen can you take out how many, just in case one decides to read up and alter tactics 😬

I am quite certain these spammers do not read the threads, but only work like bots.
Just report spam.  Do nothing else.

Some people are paranoid.
