Need help with Vietnam spam
 

I'm getting hammered daily with dozens of spam registered with .vn emails and vn IP addresses. This is odd because I get no forum spam or other registration spam except VN which starts about 2-3 weeks ago.

It came to a point where I had to block all VN IP addresses globally at my firewall, now they're using some proxy IPs instead.

They register with stupid scrambled names like "hkjkld16sd" and put other scrambled words in every profile field like "ksjcskcjk".

I have this Glow Host Spam-o-matic MOD enabled:

I also have registrations moderated first.

Same, had to block all signups from yahoo.com.vn

End it all.

thanks, but that doesn't answer the question I asked --
Is there a fast way to ban or delete every member who has a yahoo.com.vn or.vn email address?

My reply was to the OP.

best to make a new post on this

"Vietnam spam" rhymes nicely though!

I don't think these are bots. I think it's actual people. I've been getting these spammers for the past couple weeks. I haven't had a bots on my forum in a long time. You can block yahoo.com.vn and if they change emails just report to akismet and stop-forum-spam. Nothing more you can do really.

You find out for sure with the plugin I linked earlier. The biggest percentage of spam by FAR is automated. Actual, paid human spammers are few and far between.
