SPAM Registrations to a Blog?

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

This blog started getting hundreds of automated new user registrations per day, starting a few days ago.  I’m not entirely sure what the point of that would be, nor, do I have any idea why now, after several years of this blogs existence, these are showing up now.

Anyway, skipping to the point of this post: If a spammer used your email address to create an account on this blog, we’re sorry.  No one at Perceptus had anything to do with it.

We’re playing around with the well reviewed SABRE plugin for WordPress to try and stop this annoyance.  Fingers crossed.
