This looks like “contrary to the advertising policy” to me, since it doesn’t really provide any information other than the link to the commercial website. What’s this person’s other post? Did they provide anything useful or ask any questions, etc. in that? Since they haven’t filled out a profile I can’t find their other posts by clicking on the name.

The Australian jobs post looks like it’s from somebody thinking they’re “helpful” by linking to whatever website comes out on top with the google of some pretty basic words. I guess I wouldn’t ban the guy, but I do think the Puerto Rico post is advertising, so I’d delete that.

This is classic spam. Same MO as we used to see at the old site. I’m going to delete both posts.
