The only way I could stop it was going into the User CP and shut down the PM from this forum. Since I did this I have not got hit again. It's sad a person has to go to this step but at lease it stopped for me.

It's a plug in that's supposed to check for bots while the user is registering.
I too am tired of opening junk PMs. I also turned off PM in the userCP, at least for now.

The non-stop SPAM has caused me to folow suit and shut down messaging and emails. I spent hours over the course of three days re-imaging a laptop due to this type of activity from a social network site (daughter clicked on something unknowingly).

I haven't turned mine off and have not received anything for the last several days.
Maybe all of that banning helped.
We shall see.
