Got em.

One more comeback of this never-ending cat & mouse game:

Profile link: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/members/benhengga.html
jpg link using a Chinese URL shorterner this time: http://............

Sigh!

And another: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/members/tetomatyeop.html
Same URL as above.

Please report such posts immediately to alert a moderator. Posting in this un-monitored thread will not help anyone... @:-)

Exactly!

There are four of us spread across ten time zones or so, but Admin only can be here workday office hours US Pacific PST / PDT.

Documenting is good for Admin, but using the "Alert a moderator to this post" is likely to garner more rapid actions to quell the spam.

Blocking their IPs.

He's back again:

Duly purged.

Another one, same URL as above.

Ah nice to see this thread exists. Well not nice that it has to exist. That copycat spammer sure has been busy.

Baaaaack again...
 

Like I said up thread, he's back with the same link under a different handle:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/members/shleitrieg.html
http://...................

I know he will take advantage of Thanksgiving break and keep using the same link on a daily basis until Monday December 1st when IB finally blacklists that link. :(

Back again with 6 posts

No doubt the bots are getting stronger but the spammers are also up to date. I think the bots should be more technical and specific to target one IP traffic. In this way the spammers can be blocked.
