This is quite a troubling development. If legitimate member's accounts are used to post spam, wouldn't that mean their passwords have been used in order to post? Or has the whole web-site and all it's members been compromised? I can see starting a new member account for spam purposes, but even those seem to have manipulated the join date.
The suspect new accounts seem to be all the ones whose profile cannot be viewed. Not all of them have obvious spam usernames.
Thank you and good luck with your efforts.
