I agree. This FordToyota creep, needs to get banned.
BUT at least they are pleasant. He could just be posting links, or typing in garbage. They ARE sort of trying to be nice.

We try to keep up with the spammers. The one you mentioned has been permanantly banned, and his posts removed.

When you see a suspected spammer, report it. All mods will get an email, with a link to the suspected post, and we can take care of it then.

Please do not acknowledge, or quote a suspected spammer. Report them, and ignore. Never click on the link a suspected spammer posts.

Thank you all for your help with these intruders. It takes all of you, to help keep this a good place to be.

User BMW_Parts has also been banned, and his post removed.

There are a few others we are keeping an eye on. But, if you see something, let us know! Thanks!

Thank you, JellyBean. I appreciate it.


Most of the work all of the mods and admin do are not seen by most members. Generally, we do this unpaid, time consuming chore simply because we love New Beetle dot Org. Again, we need the help of every Org member to keep these stupid intruders away. I had not seen either of the spammers mentioned in this thread, so thanks to you guys, they are now gone.

But, trust me, there are many others waiting to pounce.

Thank you, and Keep up the good work!
