I have hundreds of these random addresses, and I only got this spam at the one use for BikeForums.

For me this will be easy to rectify since I can easily change the address. But if other people registered with their main e-mail address, it will be harder to get away from.

I am changing my e-mail and password used on this site.
I used an email address I use only for this site. I got the same spam.
