Does it help to report them to the moderator?
I've tried it a few times. Lately there are so many spam messages I can't report them cause it makes me wait a while before I can send a report after the first one. Don't want them to think I'm a spammer.

No need to report to admin, really. I (and others) check recent posts every day. The problem is that its not necessarily automated bots creating accounts but also real people. Very little we can do to avoid it I feel, apart from raising the barrier for initial account creation which will reduce real users getting in to get help.
