Hi,

while checking the models I happen to notice a few thousand of them being created 1970-01-01 and seem to contain nothing relevant. In fact, all models of the follow users only contain a gitatributes and sometimes a best\_gene.json like these

```auto
https://huggingface.co/pypert/hurriers/tree/main
https://huggingface.co/shropsdarcey84/arianrhod/tree/main
https://huggingface.co/vinningrev201/glaciered/tree/main

```

Possible Spam users

https://huggingface.co/jaydapichon68
https://huggingface.co/vinningrev201
https://huggingface.co/pypert

```

I just want to bring that to the admins attention in case you’d like to keep your model lsit clean. In case you like more details, I can share whatever information I have.

Best  
Mike

(Probably) since the second half of last year, there have been a series of almost identical cases of harassment.  
It is possible to report from the model page, so I think that will get through to HF.

Also, in the case of reporting this kind of harassment, it seems that HF Discord is easier for HF to deal with.  
In addition to Discord, you can use the support email or the issue column on github below for Hub issues.
