Amazingly, whoever is on the other end of that address clicked to confirm every one of those confirmation messages. All confirmation clicks appear to come from a netblock owned by Barracuda Networks... Hmm... Each signup request came from a different IP address. 5 were on CBL (as of right now) and 7 were not. In case anyone is interested, I also checked them against MinFraud from Maxmind. Of the 7 CBL did not detect, it said 5 of them were high risk of being fraudulent source. Between the two, only 2 would get through. If anyone is interested, these are the IPs used for the signup form submission: 107.184.168.161 - CBL, MF 67.208.149.17 - CBL, MF "low" 116.212.155.5 - 73.4.8.181 - MF 76.74.237.61 - CBL, MF 96.245.176.53 - MF 50.196.42.201 - MF 32.213.237.56 - 50.192.254.21 - MF 76.74.237.61 - CBL, MF 74.196.162.37 - MF 76.74.237.61 - CBL, MF I am definitely going to start checking CBL and MinFraud for these forms. Thanks for the tip. Are these addresses in a larger pool, like a Nigerian coffee shop? > Doesn't seem like it.

I think it is time to start pushing it on the customers a little harder...
