"Bots" are fake applications to join the forum............in the main they are caught by the forum software but some do get through the net and I have to try and locate them manually. They usually have stupid usernames, or stupid/made up email addresses, and absolutely random and unheard of locations. Or all three.
Is that the same as I get every day telling me that my icloud storage has been deleted 50 times in the last week despite me blocking the sender 49 times?
