Fighting forum spam since 2007!
New API limits have been imposed on both the new and old “check” APIs. The limit is 5000 per day. If you or your scripts exceed this, you will be met with a general server error. If for some reason you need the limit expanded, please contact us.
Also, please report any errors you encounter.
Thanks
There has been a lot going on (mostly behind the scenes) to update FSpamlist and I would like to detail some changes below (in no particular order).
More to come, please suggest additions in the comments below.
Thank you,
FSL
A total re-code and redesign of the site is coming soon. I wanted to make the site faster and easier to manage. Some old functions will be replaced with newer, better ones. FSpamlist is one of the very first sites I’ve coded so it is about time I recoded it to be better. Feel free to offer suggestions when its up. Check back soon.
The “recent scumbags” line on FSpamlist’s homepage will now automatically update when a new spammer is added. No refreshing is needed. When the spammers are on the rise, you can sit and watch them being caught. FUN FUN FUN
Fixed import/add bug…
I have gone too long without digging into this but the search function on fspamlist.com now works with wildcard domains.
So, if *@examplespam.com exists in the database and you search for dfdwf23432dsfdsfsd@examplespam.com , the search will return with the result of *@examplespam.com to let you know that no username at that domain can be trusted.
Edit: Also, MysteryFCM has fixed the export bugs. (which we are trying to move away from away to encourage installing his phpbb2/3 and many more mod that will integrate directly with your forum for up-to-date blocking capabilities)

Hey folks, it’s been a slow recovery from the last site down time and I just wanted to tell everyone that I haven’t forgotten about this little project and plan to devote time to get everything up to speed again. If you account has not been verified, I will do so in the future. Sorry for the delay!
Just a note folks, I’ve updated the blog again, and have also provided some code you guys can use in your guestbooks, blogs, forums etc, to query the fSpamlist etc blacklists;
I’ve been doing a little updating the site as far as style and search functionality. Now, you can sort the results of a search by spammer name, threat, type, or reports by clicking on the corresponding type you see above the results. Also, the search results are a little more organized now.
Yeah! A new support forum for the users of Fspamlist has been opened over at TeMerc Internet Countermeasures.
