    How?

    Usenet is not a moderated organization, unlike Googleworld.

    It's easy.
    Write a script to remove such spam from Google Groups like Python

    Write a script to report spam to individual telecom operator (data to be read from headers)

    If I write to the electronics group, every of my messages is followed by a number of fake messages using my nick name.

    Since just few spammers run such scripts under Linux to generate fake traffic
    I would pay someone to have a script to read headers of fake messages and report the case to telecom operator
    to stop such activity.

    Ok, I can install Usenet reader for MS Windows to read full headers of messages and report every fake message in my name case by case

    We have learned through bitter experience that our ISPs have no interest
    in these reports.

    Sadly, it isn't possible. All we can do is put them in our own filters.

    This is your choice:
    do nothing and let spammers to kill python group
    or use your intelligence to keep spammers far from Python group


    Google Groups team set the rules and pays moderator to moderate Google Groups if report is received.

    So just write a script to report every spam activity directly to COB at Google.

    Don't give up

    And after enough spam is reported Google will shut down the group
    as it did with Soc.History.What-if.

    Which completely broke that for those of us who do not use Google
    for everything, including "groups."
