More likely it's a bot which has been creating accounts and spamming through them. Staff_jim nuked another spammer earlier today named Rearea10 which was doing the same thing.

Hi Mark
Thanks for the heads-up. Until Jim goes nuclear, I've zapped some of the posts.
All the best

It was another spambot, all over the entire network. It's been sent to the roach motel.
