Antispam: Protect Your Website Against Spammers
Spammers are using web crawler bots to automatically collect
email addresses from websites. Whenever a spammer's harvesting bot visits your website, blog or forum,
all pages and sites linked to it will be scanned for email addresses.
The basic idea behind the Antispam Spambot Honeypot is to poison the spammers' address databases with lots of useless, randomly generated fake email addresses.
How Does It Work?
Whenever a Spambot visits the Antispam Spambot Honeypot to harvest email addresses, it- collects a lot of useless, randomly generated fake email addresses
- is slowed down as this page is delivered with a delay
- enters an infinite loop as this page links to itself and generates a bunch of fresh fake email addresses every time it is reloaded.
