looks like a dedicated attack by a spammer has happened I reported a few but not all.
Have noticed on other Australian forums much the same spam attacks. Seems someone in New Dehli is desperately trying to raise some cash.
Edit: Russian as well in Russian cryllic text which only a handful of people here could read.
Yes, what is the motive?I wonder at the purpose of it? I can't imagine they'd get money out of anyone.
This might be one reason; “Spammers target forums because they think that the pages in the forum will get crawled by search engines and the links in the spam posts will get indexed. The more popular the forum, the more attractive it becomes to spammers because the forum has a higher Google page rank”

That is something which did not occur to me as have little understanding how these things work. Seems the reason why as it gets the spammer more exposure to their marketing.
