And about 2 minutes after I despatched a LART, I got this:

"We terminated his account. Thanks for letting us know.

Usenet Monster Team"

I love it when a plan comes together.

A dim question maybe, but what's a LART?

This acronym site is useful in these cases, or maybe not in this specific
case.

Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool. It's a way of readjusting the
attitude of lUsers - I suspect it originates in BOFH (Bastard Operator
From Hell) but can't be arsed to Google for it...

Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool.

Basically reporting a spammer to ISP or other power in hope of
spam/account termination.

Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool, aka Clue by Four.

A big stick to clout spammers with, or in this case, an email of
complaint to the spammer's news provider grassing him up for spamming.

I recognise that. Just read a followup on another newsgroup, only he
hadn't chopped the spammer's URL.

I also recognised the spammer's URL. It's not new.

Sounds automated. And it almost certainly wasn't the spammer's real
account, but a throwaway (assuming you correctly diagnosed it and didn't
target the victim of a forgery).

Yes, LARTs are referred to in BOFH.

I think the source though is the Scary Devil Monastery,
or rather the newsgroup alt.sysadmin.recovery

Its rather a high volume group, and I don't keep up with it.
but they do discuss rather alarming devices for LARTing.
