Folks, it will take a while. Each and every post is from a different IP range noted for "brute force" attacks.

By Jean Sexton Beddow (Jsexton) on Tuesday, February 16, 2021 - 04:04 pm: Edit

All the IP ranges have been blocked and the posts deleted. However, this is a Whack a Mole situation and he'll be back.

By MarkSHoyle (Bolo) on Tuesday, February 16, 2021 - 06:35 pm: Edit

Makes me wonder, how many of those IPs lead back to a School District....

By Jean Sexton Beddow (Jsexton) on Tuesday, February 16, 2021 - 07:30 pm: Edit

None. Many are overseas -- Germany, France, Brazil, and the usual offenders or Russia, Ukraine, and Pakistan.

All IP ranges blocked -- each post from a different IP.

Mike, I want to thank you for your work. Your reports are always easy for me to trace out, find the post, and check the IP address.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 - 11:33 am: Edit

I wonder if they are using a VPN(?) to lie about their IP range.

Other places are blacklisting the IP ranges, so I suspect they are actually using those IPs.

By Jean Sexton Beddow (Jsexton) on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 - 01:22 pm: Edit

Deleted. The entire range of IP numbers owned by that company is now blocked.

By Jean Sexton Beddow (Jsexton) on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 - 01:50 pm: Edit

Two more posts deleted. One entire range of IP numbers is blocked. The other is located in the US with an abuse email, so I contacted them, letting them know that multiple companies blacklisted their IP number.
