About This Site

www.StopForumSpam.com is here to provide forum owners and moderators with the information that they should have, in order to keep their forums and blogs, as spam free as possible.

We provide free access to our database of known forum and blog spammers, including their email address, IP address, username, how busy they are and, in some cases, evidence of their spam. There are two ways that you can access this information, either by searching the site or by using the API provided to automate the searches. The API will allow your forum software (via a "mod" or plugin) to then make decisions about how you wish to handle the activities of spammers. More information about the API can be found here.
