Curious and concerned

I still wonder why they are looking at individual profiles though as well as general topics??

the Bots are looking from someone! anyone related to Sarah Connor needs to be careful...............:eek:

On a serious note the bots will 'scan' anything and everything they can access, as your profile information is freely available to anyone on the internet just like a topic thread they will access it.
 
I never give out my accurate birthday on forums or FB or anywhere other than official documentation for things like banks, passports and driving licences.
Since long before the days of the internet, I've always had a policy of
Never give out correct information, when incorrect will do just as well.​
I recommend it.

the 'bots are looking at everything for new info on everything / every one.

I do not worry to much, although most of my profile is to a greater extent correct, there is enough stuff that is not. This applies to all forum profiles I belong to, not just here.

I have a very hard name to search for, as i have the same name as a famous entertainer that swamps search results.
 
How does it know the difference between robots and guests on the list
