These three accounts seem to be the same spammer. These are similarly-named accounts, adding links to similar promotional web pages, and adding them to the same pages. Deli nk (talk) 12:22, 18 October 2010 (UTC) Deli nk (talk) 12:22, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

 * FYI, User:Cellulite treatmenst isn't blocked, as far as popups knows. Allmightyduck   &#xF8FF;  What did I do wrong? 17:20, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Given the timing, the edits, and the articles, these are likely to be related.  E lockid (Alternate)  ( Talk )  14:57, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry to jump in like this, but I knew this spamming looked familiar. Poking around turned up the following ✅ accounts. Please note some are globally blocked.

 * Nice find. Most accounts are now blocked. It's telling me that Roselita456 isn't an actual account and there's no accompanying SUL for it, though. And Cellulite seems to be blocked, but it's not registering. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 17:18, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I fixed the one account and Cellulite is globally blocked, which is probably what you're seeing. TN X Man  17:23, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Not sure what the problem is for Roselita456. The account has an SUL. I can't really check whether or not I can block the account. I'll check it later unless someone already does so.  E lockid (Alternate)  ( Talk )  18:02, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I got it as Rosalita456. But yeah, I think I was seeing that on Cellulite. So I guess we're done here? —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 18:18, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Hoo-boy. Alright, here's all the ✅ accounts I saw (note some of the ones listed above are ): I'm going to look into blocking an IP too. TN X Man 13:28, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I've blocked and tagged all the confirmed ones. If any of the stale ones become active, relist here and we'll look into it. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 14:55, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Initially, I blocked this account for vanilla spam user name violation. However, upon searching for the spammed link, I ran across this SPI as the link was spammed by this spam farm. Account is hard blocked per WP:DUCK and just being a spam account. Requesting a sleeper check since this seems to be a spam farm. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:45, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
