I checked 5 Marvin's and they are awaiting email confirmation. Their emails also look suspicious and mostlikely won't be able to complete registration.

I have notified the website admin and await his response.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Just to put this in context, we get about 500 scammers a week. Most are identified and although they apply for membership never become members. There are several groups that are identified as and total about 60k in non-active folders.

Most are just automated programs (bots) looking for a way in. The scammers such as thomas1, are human fraudsters.

All the marvin users were captured by our software and now in a non-active state.
