Exclamation Chinese parts Spammer

Seems there is a Spammer in the Want Ads. Multiple ads from China that have nothing to do with the HHR.
Hope the Admins here will ban that person/bot and delete those ads.

Admin should limit the ads in the *new* marketplace to members that have a post history here on the forums. Otherwise this is just going to get worse. Now that it has been found these spam ads are going to explode into hundreds overnight.

Might I suggest a counter-spam operation? I thought the email supplied was bad, turns out I have fat fingers.

We have

dieselparts110

all @china-lutong.net

I have a bunch of email account. You can get gmail, yahoo etc for free. I can waste an hour in the morning. There are a few bots that can fill their email up.
Maybe IB should be alerted and implement a honeypot?
