I’m quite surprised actually. I’ve been receiving an enormous amount of phpbb spam, like everyone else over the past oh, few months or so. Mostly, it was registrations with no posts and occasionally a profile link.
I came on my forum today to find a spam post – possibly posted by a human, but I’m sure the registrations are bots. Anyway, the post was filled with ~50 links to profiles on other phpbb forums. On my forum, I require registration before people can see others profiles, so the bot seems to know if that feature is on or off. Then in those profiles, are links to some very weird sites…
The basic timeline was:
Mass registration -> Occasional profile link adding -> Posting a massive list of profiles with links = $$$ for the bot owner.
Came close to completing my own phpbb3 captcha for the registration page, but it’s annoyingly complex..

I am a complete novice and can maintain my forum relative to users and permissions but have no earthly idea how to install anything to stop this problem..
Any advice of the simplest way to stop the bot registrations?
Thanks
Chris

Do you have the latest version of phpBB? Upgrading stopped all of my spam registrations. You can check your current version by going to the “system” tab in the admin control panel. For upgrade help and info, go to phpBB.com.
