    Spam bots inviting me to group chats


    I've had 2 or 3 of these spam messages all saying pretty much the same things and would like to know when a system will be in place to prevent this nonsense - perhaps new accounts or accounts with no/very low gamerscore not being allowed to contact people who haven't added them as a friend on their end first?

    When will a system be in place to prevent this? Probably never because as soon as they do something to stop the spambots the people running the spambots find a workaround.

    Just report & block them & move on.

    You can always set your comms to "friends only" in the privacy settings if it bothers you that much.

    Open group chat?

    Like when someone confirms me it doesn't invite me to a group chat which is what I want but when I do it invites someone to a chat which I don't want I dont know if i can just confirm them without a group chat

    Can a bot do any harm with me joining the group chat they invited me to

    Not at all. Just leave the group and you'll be good.

    Are they able to get anything if I joined the group chat but didn’t click on the link?
