Spammers don’t ever seem to give up

I really don’t understand why people delete the account. I came up with a better solution, at least I think it is.

  1. I changed the password for that account.
  2. I made it so the user doesn’t even have read rights. Thanks Role Manager.
  3. I changed almost everything about the user to indicate it is a spam account.
  4. I disabled the forgot password feature. Thanks WP-IDS.

Yes I am talking about the account alina77vere9uk account that everyone seems to be getting on tons of blogs that has that really suspicious e-mail address of alina77vere@gmail.com.

I am also grateful to BlogSecurity for info on securing my blog.
