What gives?

What's with all these people from Russia adding me as an LJ friend and then the account is deleted soon afterward? It's happened at least five times now.

Most likely bots. LJ is getting a bit better at shutting them down.

I have really wondered that myself of late!

Looking through their friend lists they have a couple of MY friends listed. I have just listed them in my mind as hackers and not added them. So far they have been banned a couple of days after adding me.

I really have to look at this whole 'bot thing thought... it was something I hadn't thought of b/4.
