I'm getting signups and spam blogs, forum posts, comments. It's happening within days of launching a site. I have a new site on a host off of Jamroom hosting which was hit. The email address is one I've seen before on another site posting spam. How are they finding our sites?

Also, I'd like to be able to delete a user and all traces of their activity, but if I delete a user and profile, their counts still show.

I often see the same user signup within minutes on all my live JR sites. These are real people (not bots) and I get that they get my sites from the showcase listings here on JR. Because they are real people there's not much that can be done about it.

Deleting a user and its profile should delete all their content and stats. What are you still seeing?
Thanks

Yeah, I thought that it was real people. But it seems odd that I'm getting them in new sites, like a day after I put them online. They're not listed anywhere.

As far as deleting users. I still see stats in the forum after deleting offending users. So a forum will say there are X number of posts in a topic when there is none.
