I suspect the first is an IT professional just advertising his services. No mention of models.

The second has a spammer.

This one is weird. Says she has -2 posts! I think this is legit but her profile needs fixing.

Dustin and Turner were using the same IP-nr and had more or less the same text in the 'About me' field.
Dusting had no link to 'Visit my website' but Turner did and it was about weed ..... Spammer terminated

Cynthia is strange, e.mail and IP-nr both lead to Oklahoma City and she is self-employed as 'handy-woman' doing garden maintenance (trimming, mowing, raking, fixing fences et.c). Strange about the missing posts though ....


Not ready to pass judgement yet, keaning towards spammer but there doesn't seem to be any posts and the profile doesn't contain much so I will monitor for a while.

I found a new variant of spamming (spammer terminated of course, he even advertised his spamming services on some web-site for professionals).
He quoted a legit post which had a link in it and then inserted a spam-link inside the legit link.
I assume that the plan was that those interested in the legit link (a razor saw sold by UMM by the way) would occasionally click on the spam link instead.

Linking to down pillows?! Who cares about pillows these days, "Sara" should have linked to large supplies of TP instead ...

What about this guy— passing off anti aging cream as a weathering product maybe?

Well, that user didn't age well.

I was beginning to wonder if all the spammers had quarantined themselves. I was getting worried there for a while about losing my job ...

I noticed that, and wondered if we’d caught a break or if the spammers caught the virus. I’ve also noticed the spam phone calls have declined to a dribble (a good thing). I’m wondering what’s up— maybe those call centers are infected? Serves fraudsters right. Maybe Karma is at work?

Sure rub it in Russ about telemarketers slowing down calling you.

Since everything has gone sideways, the number of telemarketers calling me have gone from zero to an average of four a day. They're somehow getting through my caller ID (which used to outright block 95%, and flagged the other 5% on the phone as spam.)

Well, at least you haven’t had any calls from yourself yet have you? I did a few months ago— stupid spoofers calling with my own name! And more than once. But, I can say I haven’t received a call for several weeks now. I’ve had an increase in spam emails just within the last two weeks though. And I was surprised to see that anti-aging cream spam at Kitmaker today— as Robin noted, it’s been pretty quiet around here. I just thought he was being very efficient

I get calls from my self every few months. Figure it's one of the personalities calling home. I don't answer. What if they know things about me that I don't? Could be awkward.

I'm pretty sure this guy is a SEO guy. I saw him earlier but was waiting to see if there were more visits.

I sunk his boat.
The 'About' was more than evidence enough and the sign-up IP is located in India (Madhya Pradesh) instead of Florida so he got a torpedo

I'd say so. Testosterone booster and enhanced virility. Striking at men with low self esteem.
