I guess an easy fix for that particular issue is to severely rate limit mentions. E.g. if a user mentions more than 100 users in 1 hour then delay them and flag the account. Then you can whitelist it if it's a legit CI bot or whatever.

this could be gamed though - mention 99 users, switch accounts, rinse and repeat

I assume there's some barrier to creating accounts that makes it difficult? If not there's pretty much nothing they can do.
