Hey Duc... Any insight into what actually caused the spam??? Are we doing anything that creates an issue and enables spammers in some way???

I explained how they are doing it in my post.

This is probably obsolete as it is about 2 years old and it's out of my expertise, but I found the methods in the article interesting. You can scroll to the bottom and read the conclusion and get the gist of how they do it.

The spam posters are still posting with id's from a few days ago.
