Now we know .

I choose to ban the member manually for spam instead of using moderation tools, why? To leave this thread up and explain an easy way to check spam if you're unsure .

*This could have been legitimate, RichieBoy's suspicion is one most make but you must be 100% sure on business/company related sites, he could have been legit so we must always check!

Do the following:

First:
  1. Take their name and simply search for it online Google/Bing/Yahoo etc.
  2. Look for Profile links on forums with the same name in the results list.
  3. On three to five of the links view their profile.
  4. Click on "Find all posts by Username".

Second:
  1. Copy part of their post.
  2. Now search for it on Google/Bing/Yahoo.
  3. On three to five of the links view the post.

Are the threads/posts on those forums identical to yours?
- If so then you have a 100% verified spammer.
- In some cases if the username is identical, then registration on the last few links listed in the search results will be within minutes of each other.
