How strange !

The last few days, two new accounts were created on IMPDB.

The both gives full name and address (!) and a link for a blog in the US domain written in turkish about hair transplant... !?!?

No more posts done.

same tactic :

but this time, the webpage is a link to Utube for a "muscle maximizer".

I'm pretty sure it's not useful for muscle planes !

Cheers for pointing this out, this happens every now and then although it should be limited by the 'captcha' during sign-up. You should see how many fake account we get on the forum!

I've deleted and blocked these users.

There is another one from yesterday which I'm not as sure about. I'll let it play out and see what happens.

some new fact which seem strange to me :
the same day (this 6th july 2013), three people created a new user account with similar profile
* a first name glued with the first letter of the name
* all three are working (paid) for online services (press) but are ready to work freely here.

they are :
PennyAkin
JermaineF
WilliamsD

Am I paranoïac ?

edit of 8th july :

New !
GabrielFi
RonnieChi (both today)

Let's not forgive the yesterday 's king : DominicCu (who is "a highly-paid" [it's very important... no ! essential !]).

If they look fake, they probably are.

They have all been blocked and deleted now. Thanks for pointing it out.

Thanks !

Another ones which look strange...

CarlotaDS with a link towards a torrent site (19th july)
WallaceAVO writes in italian but put a link to a japanese site !? (18th july)

26 July 2013 : NTSMaryspmrzqbi
31 July 2013 : AsaH21mwligmp

All 4 have created a user account with a single contribution with the same spirit of the previous 'strange' new contributors (but nothing about movies !).

Another one !

They are unchained these days !





Thanks to the admin for the extra work in sight !

BTW,
it's perhaps time to change the 'secret word' to validate a page/new count ... or to make the establishment of an account for validation by admin, isn't it ?

This problem is being addressed and should be rectified in some upcoming upgrades. Keep an eye out for announcements.
