Would you call this spam, just the link and thread title?

I would, maybe technopredator's account has been hacked or something.

Hmm.   He's normally not a bot,  I'll leave it for now but would prefer a bit of context with posts like these.  Or I might lock it if he doesn't comment....

Hi, First, writing from phone, spilled liquid on keyboard, it got pissed and committed suicide.

Second, yeah that got flagged as Spam in several places, Facebook, WhatsApp, etc. No, my account haven't been hacked.

OK, here is context: in POV-Ray Fans FB group someone explained to me that Phishing places post exactly as I did, short and sweet free deals, so they wanted also more context, so here:
This website started giving away a free system in 2017 with the Launch of AMD Ryzen CPU, it's all legit, you can see the old  Give Aways and the winners, it doesn't give away systems often, 1 every 6 months or so, only 4 in 2 years. That code is mine, meaning if you register with it and win, I get 1 system too, so is mutual benefit, and in turn you get your code at register time, and you can always copy it from a link on your profile. The system is free shipping anywhere on the Planet, Customs is unknown but I guess you'd have to deal with it, since you'd get a 7.2K$ PC for Free. This has the approval of AMD, so it's as legit as it can be, it's all explained in the website, no cost, just fill out the fields about yourself and your current PC, you can even post pictures of both. For detailed system info and copy-paste capability, I'd suggest AIDA64, also good but no copy-paste are  CPU ID, GPU ID, HWiNFO (has copy-paste) and HWMonitor.

I activated notifications in Firefox and I got a new one a few seconds ago, another Give away, minor this time, so I'd recommend to join immediately.

All the info and FAQs are on the website all I know is from there but you can check AMD.com to confirm. I'll post the link again here an on the OP https://www.gamingtribe.com/giveaway/pure/fb_10155211015908203

Hey, thanks for letting me post this, I really need the money, I'd sell the system at the same price
