Spam Blocks on +888 Anonymous Numbers

I am the creator of the @rental service and work alongside services like @rent. Anonymous numbers (+888) should not be subjected to spam block procedures, as this creates enormous problems for the market.

Spam Block Problems:

  1. People buy +888 numbers on Fragment.com, but they turn out to be spam-blocked. After using the number, their account gets a spam block. Imagine buying a number for $30,000 and having your account blocked? It’s terrible. People intentionally sell spam-blocked numbers on Fragment.com to immediately buy new clean numbers.As a result, the number of spam-blocked accounts grows, and it becomes increasingly difficult for ordinary people to purchase clean numbers. This will eventually lead to almost all numbers on Fragment.com causing account blocks for their owners.

  2. People who rent out their +888 numbers end up receiving spam blocks due to renters’ actions, preventing them from renting out these numbers properly in the future. They are then forced to sell these numbers to buy new ones. This harms the operations of services like @rent, @rental, @major, and others. While @major might have the ability to remove spam blocks through support, we do not have this option—support does not respond.

  3. It is critically important to ensure that Fragment.com does not have numbers that lead to account blocks for those who rent or purchase them. This damages the reputation of these numbers and harms their market value. People, rental services, and the overall market suffer, while spam activity does not decrease—scammers simply buy new numbers.

This issue concerns many people right now, and I will invite all my friends to leave a comment under this petition. Together, we will make the Fragment.com market better and cleaner!

Steps to reproduce

Rent a +888 number that someone else has received a spam block on or buy such a "dirty" number on Fragment.com

Everyone's feedback makes sense, but if 888 has no restrictions, it will become a powerful tool for scammers. How to balance it is a question.
There’s no difference because people sell these numbers and immediately buy new ones without a spam block. This process takes literally just a few minutes. Meanwhile, the new owner of a number with a spam block gets their account suspended, goes to complain to support, and tries to unblock their number and account, but no one responds to them.

So this doesn't harm spammers, but it does harm usual owners and renters!

Please, fix this horrible issue for anonymous number owners, these numbers are very expensive investment tool, so it is absolutely unacceptable to apply spam blocking for this NFT!

This issue needs to be fixed asap because this bad solution will radically destroy the whole anonymous number NFT market.

SINGLE SMART SOLUTION: there should be no spam blocking for +888 anonymous numbers, but spammers should get their bans by device or IP or Telegram ID, but not by NFT numbers, because owners buy these numbers for very expensive prices from 1k to 100k$, owners should be protected from damage and destruction of their very expensive NFT investments.

Dear developers Telegram , we alway very respect you , and we grateful to you for your efforts for protect at spam activity , but spam block of expensive NFT Numbers is really terrible destructive decision, it contradicts the canons of successful development of any functional NFT asset, which are based on the firm conviction of investors in the stability of the functionality and applicability of their expensive NFT assets.

If this is not quickly fixed, then not only will it quickly destroy the Anonymous Numbers NFT market, but it will also inevitably cause irreparable harm and damage to the reputation and trust of the entire NFT market on the TON blockchain. This will have long-term reputational losses for the entire Telegram investment ecosystem, including usernames, because if the rights of buyers of expensive NFTs are so unceremoniously and categorically violated, then investors will never feel safe again and the fragile trust in any investment in this ecosystem will be destroyed forever, which means that existing and future potential investors in this ecosystem will never feel confident and secure in their expensive assets, and then not only will there be no new investors, but there will also inevitably be a global and irreversible outflow of finance currently exist investors from this entire ecosystem, the consequences of this destructive step will be catastrophic for the entire ecosystem of NFT assets here. This will be terrible and scare precedent for all exist and future serious investors.

Simply and smartest decision: need as soon as possible cancel Spam Block for NFT Anonymous numbers , but need apply Spam Block for spamer's Telegram ID. So, real spamers will get real effective restrictions and punishment , but rights owners of expensive NFT will save and protected.

With Best Regards !

Also, there is a new trend of scam, when an army of bots reports an account of innocent user, deleting it account with all his assets. That's dirt and unacceptable, and should not be available

Indeed, this is an urgent problem, it's good that we raised this issue. Now we need to draw more attention to this.

The introduction of the possibility of checking for locks, the creation of a transparent registry of room statuses will help to avoid the purchase of "dirty" numbers and will positively affect the quotes of "clean" ones.

We ask the administration to pay attention to the problem. Many have already suffered, and many more may suffer. Let's prevent this
author Jan 6
It is necessary to block the account ID itself from which the prohibited actions were performed, and not the NFT number. This kills the utility of this asset.
