All removed, thanks for reporting!

Damn spammers, this is never going to end unless I cut the whole region out, like we did with China.

As to the report button, we tried this and it was unmaintainable – I'd need a separate person to sit and sift through all reports that might or might not be spam. For now, here or email reporting works relatively well.

Correction, not all removed just the first page. Will remove manually, it'll take a while.

Thanks, I'll take a different approach at this point and create a few new spam rules to check against this type of content.

Reopening for now.

What's the point of indexing such pages? It makes more sense to leave indexing only for the main page and those that are truly necessary, while excluding the rest in the robots.txt file...

This would be a big mistake. For example, You can find other people's examples of good code. I think you need to use a trick and exclude pages that contain spammer keywords, such as "казино" and "casino"

@Voha888 I could be mistaken, but generally, it's important to look at click-through statistics. If the majority of links are placed on platforms like Stack Overflow and forums, and there aren't many direct clicks, then there might not be much point in indexing such pages. Addressing specific issues might be possible, but creating a general rule based on stop words like 'казино' and 'casino' is definitely not feasible; a comprehensive anti-fraud system is required for that.

I searched for 'an appointment letter template for the CEO of an LLP in Kazakhstan' ("пример приказа о назначение генерального директора ТОО в Казахстане"), and the word 'казино' (casino) wasn't in the link. In your examples, not all domain names include casino-related words as well; they often use random names.
Here, there're two issues — fraud and SEO manipulation. I've already suggested a quick and obvious solution, but I don't know anything about the service's development strategy.
