Bogus Accounts #140

Closed burlexpo closed 1 year ago

burlexpo commented 4 years ago

I was researching a different issue using Manage Users when I noticed a bunch of obviously bogus accounts — many from Russia — that had been created in the last 4-6 weeks.

Here are some examples (user names):

Weren’t we using CAPTCHA to keep this for happening?

Hmm... so I'm researching:

https://datadome.co/bot-detection/recaptchav2-recaptchav3-efficient-bot-protection/

Makes me wonder if I want to go from what we have (recaptchav2) to recaptchav3. I could also look at other brands. Too tired for this right now... but noting it for later.

Closing - I now have a bad people email list that we check. It caught problem children like these, and so far seems to have been effective since it was installed.
