I see several more sales items being posted. Is there any way of banning the user and picking up if he tries to re-register under another address?

ah, the joys of website management. :mad:

Quick answer: Not really. They use roving IPs (most of 'em are faux anyway) so you can't ban an IP to get rid of them.

They're bots that do nothing more than roam the web and try to sign up at forums, then post in those forums pre-made ads.

Pains in the behind - I have to clear 25 - 30/week from my site. There's nothing you can do except keep an eye on things and delete them as they show up.
