spam bot

Post by Guest »

I'm pretty sure that user 'camera23944' is some kind of automated spam bot! Apologies if you aren't, but your posts make no sense!
Check out this users post history, and it appears to be a load of random phrases, plus the signature advertises online casinos.

I don't think camera23944 a spambot, if so... then it must be a very smart one.

I'm still fairly sure on this one - the comment 'Look, the thing is that you - . You know what - nevermind. forget it' appears in 2 unrelated threads, and all the others are nonsense (some quote a previous item in the thread, but reply with something completely irrelevant), eg :

clipped wrote:
"upon first listen, i was underwhelmed, but after a while i found that even the element that seemed so foreign (guitar) somehow sounded like classic boards of canada. "

camera23944 replies : I know a guy that can help you with that, I will see if I can get him to post here.

also, all of the posts occured between 4:57am and 5:01am on the same date.

I may end up looking a complete idiot here, but I'm still sure this isn't a real person! :D

It's either a spam bot or a warped sense of humour kind of person.

He's being watched!

as for the comment 'I know a guy that can help you with that, I will see if I can get him to post here.' - that appears on quite a few forums, such as http://bobbyfischer.net/phpBB2/viewtopi ... &view=next&
and always with gambling adverts in the posters signature.

no problem! These bots really annoy me! You might not hear from it again anyway, as it only seems to make 5 posts per forum.
