    Hello! Just grabbed the plugin today and I’m already enjoying your work. Thank you for the plugin and for the extremely reasonable pricing model.

    I have had a spam registration problem on my site for about the past 5 months, so I have accumulated a large number of spam registrations. Many of them were not caught by the scan, which is understandable. Is there any way to submit this list of users to you or on cleantalk.org so they can be blocked for others as well?

    Thanks!

    Hello @theawesomeladiesproject,

    Yes, please, upload the list of spam IPs to your Personal Lists here:
    https://cleantalk.org/my/show_private?service_type=antispam

    The guide is here:
    https://cleantalk.org/help/blacklist-usage

    Our system will take them and give them respective spam score based on the activity of the addresses.

    We also have a public page for reporting an address, however, there’s no feature to do it in bulk:
    https://cleantalk.org/blacklists/report-ip

    Thank you too.

    Awesome. I created a CSV of the IP addresses and uploaded them. It looks like many of them were already on the blacklist, but because they were just ‘pending’ accounts on my site, they were perhaps not being scanned, or the accounts were not being directly associated with those IP addresses.

    Thanks for the prompt response, and I can already see the drastic difference in our site responsiveness now that we are no longer under siege by an extremely persistent Russian bot army.

    As you mentioned in one of your FAQ articles, we were starting to look like spammers ourselves, since we were constantly trying to send registrations emails to potential ‘customers’ like linda_weis AT freelivepornshows.com and uta_driggers57 AT arriaga48.funny3delements.com ??
