Multiple Account Detector



What is this mod all about?
We all know that one of the problems in managing a board is users creating multiple accounts. Banned users that return using a VPN or whatever. This plugin will detect multiple accounts used by the same user and create a report thread in a forum of your choice.

Example of the thread posted:

Plugin settings:

You can modify basically everything, but we'll continue to expand this plugin with a lot more detection options to track users!


Free version includes:
- Detecting multiple users based on a cookie
- Up to a history of 3 users (reports the last three users in a report thread)
- You can fully manage the location, thread starter, title & content of report threads

PRO version includes:
- Detecting multiple users based on a cookie
- Detecting multiple users based on the IP address (including support for load balanced setups and Cloudflare proxy)
- Unlimited history of user accounts, the full history of logins will be reported in the report thread
- You can fully manage the location, thread starter, title & content of report threads
- Exclude users from being reported
- Exclude user groups from being reported
- Admin panel module added, with options and an overview page of IP addresses having multiple users.
- A smile from the team, you bought us a round of coffee! ;-)


The PRO version cost 9.99$

This one handy addon...i had this on my vB 4 version a few years back which saved me a lot of time.
Thanks for bringing it back to vB 5.

Thank you for the support! ;)
We also had it on all of our vBulletin 4 installs, living without one was a hell. A whole lot of scammers made their return to the sales section on our board without anyone knowing... It's a great tool to detect the return of banned members!

Pro version finished and buy link added to the thread!

Unlimited history of user accounts, the full history of logins will be reported in the report thread
How do I achieve this in the Pro Version? I can't seem to find a button for it.

It's automatically available :) As soon as someone has been logging in over 2-3-4 accounts whey will all get reported in a thread. Oh, and thanks for your support by buying the PRO version! We'll continue to develop some very nice vBulletin plugins, so keep an eye on this section.

I would rather have the duplicate accounts all reported in the same thread (new post in the thread) than creating a new thread each time, which would probably end-up spamming my private section.
Is there a,y way to make it work this way ?

We will need to rewrite that part or add it as an option. In the meantime: Create a sub-channel within your private channel with a name like "Multiple accounts", we have it set up like that :)

Working on 5.4.3. :)

Logging into my test account triggers this. Unless I'm missing something it needs a usergroup exemption option. It is noted that it'd doesn't post duplicate reports of the same 2 connected usernames so that's good.
