Do a search on "spam" "titles only" in this forum to find a bunch of threads about this exact topic and do a search on "spam" "all mods" "titles only" to find a bunch of mods for dealing with spammers.

Those are probably human spammers. Not many ways to stop them without verifying them on your own.

As Baldi says, some might still be humans who are paid to manually register and spam that way.
