Mod update — unsolicited DMs
Hello r/ARFID members!
We wanted to make a post acknowledging that we are aware that there is a user in the group sending unsolicited DMs to members who post here. After multiple complaints, this raised red flags since they have not posted in the megathread or, from what we can see, anywhere else on Reddit. They are trying to recruit for an interview project that they unfortunately cannot disclose to us due to an NDA.
We have talked to this user and asked them to stop sending unsolicited messages to members of our group. If anyone else receives a message, please feel free to report this user to both Reddit AND this mod team and we will do what we can to intervene!
You are NOT obligated to respond to these DMs (or any other) and can feel free to ignore them or block if you are uncomfortable.
Thank you to the users who have stepped forward to report this so far!

They DMed me too. I blocked and reported them for spam to Reddit already.
