Thanks for the FYI. It is better to report the post or message using the `!` button. Then I get alerted directly.

bafoyo was definitely a bot and showed up in the spam database, they have been deleted/banned.

jpswapmohn is a different person though, and is a valid user.

Yup, got rid of him just now. His email did end showing up in the spam database. Just a bit late to outright stop him from joining.

Thank you Stuka for the work you do to keep out the riff raff. I know it can be a full time job at times.

well that is annoying! I don’t have a . after my user name…
I guess I need to be here more often. My wagoneer is going into the shop this week for the 6.6 L8T swap!

As I noted above, its best to use the `!` button to report the post. That way I get notified of it.

They have been removed.

Was not sure it was, so did not report it. I suppose you would check them out anyway if I had just reported it? Know what to do next time :)

Yeah, I won't just ban a user because they were reported. I will investigate their email and such. If something seems fishy, just report it. I don't always have time to read through all the posts here to catch them myself.
