Hiya Gary

I the 2 posters who are suddenly posting about world cup football shirts are spam companies, obviously trying to log on to the links within their text.

The pidgeon english looks like its chinese spam fishers.

Can we delete these ones and stop them posting in the future. I reckon if you do a security check on the sites they are linking your online protection will go nuts.

Its too coincidental too have 2 messages both talking about cheap shirts etc etc

Thank you mate.

Funny you should say that! I deleted them THEN saw your message! I thought it odd the first time round but had no real reason but the second confirmed that.

Its weird and I don't get it! This has only just started a few weeks ago. Like the kitchens, what the heck is so special about kitchens? The kitchens one are registering with throwaway domains but there are thousands, I can block them all but that can cause issues with legitimate ones. The latest football shirt one registered with a hotmail account - if I block those I might not be able to anyone new to sign up!!

To get past the antispam protection they must be real people, it seems a lot of effort to post a link for a few days only 2 people will see!

Well done mate.

I agree, but I am guessing they only need to trap one person, steal their ID and it is financially worth it.

But why always kitchens? I don't think we are being singled out so are all these forums havens for people desperate to buy kitchens? Why not a new car? Very bizarre!
