Title: Security breached Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Security breached * Resolved [conny3496](https://wordpress.org/support/users/conny3496/) * (@conny3496) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-breached/) * Hi, * I have been using this plug-in for quiete a while now and I am (was) very happy with it. * But: Since two days I am having problems with spam bots again. Is anyone else having these problems? Is there any way to resolve this? I was forced to close down registration today because I had about 30 bot-registrations this night. * I would love it if you could help 🙂 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-security-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-security-check/) Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * [yukiko-kawa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yukiko-kawa/) * (@yukiko-kawa) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-breached/#post-5573717) * I had a similar problem. Today December 13, 2014 I had 4 recordings very suspicious and yesterday a recording suspects. I go to see, and they did create new spam group. Fortunately, only three groups to be deleted. And ‘something happened? it is possible that we have found the solutions? * I would note that you are registered to an hour and you are not logged in immediately but after a while (like a hour or two). of course the fact that we created four groups does not appear from plughin of activity, but this is because the plugin is not fishing activities BuddyPress ** We hope that you find a way to fix this flaw. I would recommend a combination captures + numerical sum. * possible spammer history on my site : * User shanonf38hspsk (Shanon Manuel) logged in 17 minuti ago by shanonf38hspsk( Shanon Manuel) * Hester FrankiUser hester09cbckdo (Hester Franki) logged in 3 ore ago by hester09cbckdo( Hester Franki) * User hester09cbckdo (Hester Franki) created 3 ore ago by * Nam FinnanUser namfinnanyebul (Nam Finnan) logged in 5 ore ago by namfinnanyebul( Nam Finnan) * Josie KilburnUser liijosievidtxz (Josie Kilburn) logged in 6 ore ago by liijosievidtxz( Josie Kilburn) * User namfinnanyebul (Nam Finnan) created 6 ore ago by * User liijosievidtxz (Josie Kilburn) created 6 ore ago by * Steffen ThorsonUser steffenk54nrsy (Steffen Thorson) logged in 8 ore ago by steffenk54nrsy (Steffen Thorson) * User steffenk54nrsy (Steffen Thorson) created 8 ore ago by * User shanonf38hspsk (Shanon Manuel) created 9 ore ago by * Barbra McCabeUser barbramccabewj (Barbra McCabe) logged in 13 ore ago by barbramccabewj( Barbra McCabe) * User barbramccabewj (Barbra McCabe) created 13 ore ago by * Adrianne RheinUser adrianneg51szz (Adrianne Rhein) logged in 13 ore ago by adrianneg51szz( Adrianne Rhein) * User adrianneg51szz (Adrianne Rhein) created 13 ore ago by * User tonjamaganamm (Tonja Magana) created 14 ore ago by * [koreancandy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/koreancandy/) * (@koreancandy) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-breached/#post-5573799) * I have been having the issues. * Since Yesterday, over 40 spam accounts have signed up to my site. * [yukiko-kawa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yukiko-kawa/) * (@yukiko-kawa) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-breached/#post-5573800) * is terrible, I do not fast blocking that occur in 10 to 20 per day * look, you have to find a solution as soon as possible because the situation is not sustainable.

Those damn bots just keep getting smarter. * I’m not really in a position to design a completely new solution to this at the moment. I might revisit this later, but for the time being it is probably better to seek out a different solution to stopping spam registrations. * Thread Starter [conny3496](https://wordpress.org/support/users/conny3496/) * (@conny3496) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-breached/#post-5573856) * Thank you, Shea, for you feedback.
