    The Reddit scam always involved multiple accounts to circumvent the rules.

    One account would post the shirt and a second account would invariably post a link to where they “found” a link to buy it.

    Then there would be a veritable army of collaborators that wouldn’t post and just downvote anyone who called it out into oblivion.

    Unfortunately the only solution I can come up with would be to ban commerce links altogether. …which sucks for authentic users.

    ETA: I forgot they would sometimes run the scam with a third account that would ask where it could be bought for the link posting account to reply to.
