@Lauchpad admins:

I also rate these messages as spam or misuse of launchpad.

I have moved these questions to https://answers.launchpad.net/spamalot/+questions (there are also two other ones for deletion)

Please also remove comments #5 and #6 in https://answers.launchpad.net/gui-ufw/+question/244216

@Bernard:
Using "spamalot" as temporary storage for spam questions and bugs was a suggestion by Daniel Letzeisen https://answers.launchpad.net/~dtl131 which I agree with:

Move spam messages to the "spamalot" pseudo-project AND report them to the Launchpad admins.

Spam reports should be posted as questions towards the Launchpad project and the title should start with "[spam report]" (This was a request by the Launchpad admins, but I cannot find the reference any more.)

Sorry, but this is a misunderstanding. I am not an administrator and I cannot remove the spam and block their creators. We have to wait for some Launchpad admins to do that!
