A little Help please guys

Trying to get on top of the spammers and slowly winning... I think.  LOL

I do not want to get paranoid, which I think I am, so if you guys could help me check this one out.

No hit on your list but when I google.......

I think he is a potential spammer

IP:- 74.53.160.50
Email:- adamzjunior@hotmail.net
User Name:- FlutTypeetext

Any hints on what to look for when I google them would greatly be appreciated.  Still learning.  I have already nearly banned a a serach engine bot, but thanks to help here I didn't, and I do not want to stuff things up.

Thanks guys

If google gives you a hit for a username/email address thats on this site, then its a spammer

Got him..he's a Spammer
http://www.projecthoneypot.org/ip_74.53.160.50

For Google,if you google the username and he's joined up for loads of forums on the same day odds are he's a spammer.
The IP could give a clue as to if it's been banned from other forums.

If still unsure after using Stop Forum Spam and Google check the IP on project honeypot.

Many Thanks

I'll put that honey pot url into my favourites.

Much appreciated.

So I should add this character to the list/data base here, yes?

You're welcome.
I would add him,looking at the sample spam and the latest IP record on the honeypot it's pretty convincing.
