Error - View Single Post - Delete Lists of Files after grep in Linux

Linux Environment.

I have a command that lists all files containing the text '***SPAM***', take the list, and delete All of them.

this command lists all files containing text 'some text'.. but I'm not sure if it applies for '***SPAM***'
grep -lir "some text" *
