For many years, radio4000.com has faced issues with spam—fake users creating fake radio stations. You may have come across radio profiles for services like botox clinics, spa massages, and other local businesses, which lack track lists and contain only links to their websites and exhaustive descriptions of their services.

We wish these were real users sharing their favorite tracks and media selections. Unfortunately, they remain empty profiles, cluttering the experience for genuine users. None of these profiles offer real content (such as tracks or curated radio channels) or utilize the service in a meaningful way (like displaying a radio playlist in a physical space to showcase a curated list of audio or video).

It’s especially frustrating because spam is highly visible compared to the number of new users on our site, which makes it noticeable when browsing our “community pages.”

We’ve tried to understand the issue by examining our database to see which users were creating this spam content, and if any scripts were automating the process. We couldn’t identify a clear pattern, although each user profile appeared generic and unofficial (e.g., [email protected] , [email protected] ).
