Hello all!

Just thought this could be a central point to keep such posts together rather than starting a new topic each time.

Perhaps post a link to the original and include e.g. the title, include IP address, a brief summary of action etc as applicable.

Let me know what you think.

fitriana posted in General > Kitchen Cabinets with .co.uk link but was posting from an Indonesian IP 180.254.41.247. No link whatsoever with asthma. Curiously, the website looked rather suspicious too with no postal address. Also had the website as a signature line.

Again post duely edited as well as signature and user suspended

Fake ID scam "" Buy Real and Quality Passports , Id cards , Drivers Licence with other documents"" posts by joshjw in several topic areas from a UK IP 46.17.63.215

Another fake ID scam "" Buy Real and Quality Passports , Id cards , Drivers Licence with other documents"" posts by Brandon in several topic areas from a Peruvian IP 190.52.120.38 oddly enough using very similar wording as the last spammer

More passport spam 11 posts in total over the last approx. 24 hours over all forum areas. Reported by rather exasperated members, posts edited and spammers suspended.

Justine3 had 7 posts about fake passports and other ID.

Claimed to be from Belgium but a Cameroon IP 41.205.71.139.

Daniel posted similar 4 times from yet again a Cameroon IP 41.92.233.133 claiming to be in Canada and Albania.

I have killed over 15 spam posts too, so that means we've had at least 26 of them over the course of a few days. Let's see if Hugh's tweaks to the settings help prevent them.

Several more overnight plus others removed yesterday.

Have deleted contents but left the posts for now if anyone wishes to investigate.

Let me know if it's a straight to remove in future
