Repetitive SPAM Post False-Positive

A forum member was kind enough to send this to me via PM that supposedly all my posts he was seeing today had this prompt for him on them. How exactly is this happening and why is there a false-positive hit on legitimate posts?

I need to know if this is on the forum side or perhaps something in whatever app he might be using to read the forums and therefore on the client side. If it’s server side, IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED/REFINED ASAP.

Thanks

Somebody is reporting one or more of your posts as spam, so the forum is flagging them all with the above warning and asking people to vote on whether or not your posts are really spam.

On the positive side, your current post reporting this is not tagged as spam so the voting system has worked.....

Must be one of those vendors/manufacturers who maybe didn’t like my louder than usual criticisms of their business ethics or product turnout as of late trying to game the system. Lol
