I can no longer view the account as they have been deactivated, so I'm not sure if there were any if the usual signs, but AnthonyLype was a spam bot account. Just a heads up :)

Hullman seems to be genuine but rahliesivy, dodrdowak, roriardor and EnriquefaR used known spammer IP addresses - all deactivated.

Thanks Akor - you are doing a great job :) .

As a rule of thumb usernames which are long and random ("alphabet soup") are almost always spammers - all of those that you were unsure about used spammer IP addresses - now deactivated.

Yep, they're all spam accounts.
There used to be a would-be-spam thread here, I'll track it down or start a new one, rather than posting in this thread about spam accounts.

You guys are doing a really good job! Thank you so much :)

Just out of curiosity, do you ever get a reply to your PMs?

Swirlish - I have got a few replies, but not many.

Akor - looks like that last one would be a spam account. One of the less obvious ones. Thanks for doing such a great job with all the PMs.
