Spammer complaining that she can’t access forum!
We got a spammer recently, named Nancy and she started a spam thread. So I went ahead and banned her and shortly after getting banned for spamming our forum, she contacted me:

The following message was sent to you via the India Travel Forum, BCMTouring.com Contact Us form by nancy.

--------------------------------

I CANT SEE MY FORUM PROPERY.
CANT SEE URL OF THE SITE.
Isn’t she sweet?

Well I was in a bad mood that day so replied a bit rudely:

Because you are banned for spamming our forum and the domain for which you were spamming has been blacklisted. Which means even genuine users can't post the url of your site any more!

Better think twice before spamming our forum, also we are tracking your ip address and any further attempts at spamming our forums would result in us contacting your ISP (VSNL) and Ahemdabad police!

Have a nice day!

In that case spammer would have returned, in any case I am fairly certain about the city the spammer is from. Since the IP belongs to fairly large Indian ISP which has city/region specific IP addresses.

Just a website listing used car, but I normally blacklist (censored through ACP) the sites/forums spammers post about to ensure that sites which employ such tactics never get any business from my forums!
