*10 Hits on SFS for registering email - so good call*

ngmanulp7: https://bb.oolite.space/memberlist.php?m ... ile&u=7022

Spammy name, spammy guy ... probably! No sign on SFS, but no trace on Google either. And the extraneous details look shifty to me.

2004? The guy probably doesn't even remember visiting. I certainly can't remember what the hell I was doing in 2004.

Highly suspicious about

Nothing on SFS but a quick google turned up at least two other forum profiles by this name, here and here, which are confirmed spammers (the first has an email address with 100 hits on SFS, and the second has a very dubious link).

Hmm ... either he's been nuked from orbit or has just cloaked. If the latter – perhaps he should be the former?

Nothing suspicious, except a very spammy name at the moment.

Name sets of some bells.
Time on the bb does as well.
No hits on SFS
NO hits on google.
ICQ leads to "Amir Levine" who is from Israel, while the profile here says from France.

After the discussion on the chat room, if this isn't a spam bot I will eat something unpleasant. :wink:

Perhaps it's a bot which is only spamming as a leisure activity in its free time, when not listing cache memories? Oh, and it's in love with a processor, too.

Now tell me there's no romance in the world of spam bots! :P
