To report an user, you first have to go on its member page: just click on user's name under article's title.
Then, on member's page, you will find a red flag (at the upper right corner); from there you can report the user, either as troll/abusive member, or as spammer.

Two new members, both joined yesterday:
Member 14768077 - Professional Profile[^]
Member 14768075 - Professional Profile[^]
Both first post a solution to old questions, both on the same subject:
2010: Finding All Drive Size From Hard disk[^]
2013: Total size of a harddisk[^]
Both answers are essentially the same: not an answer.
Both posted within 5 minutes of each other.

Now, I know coincidences can happen, but ... that's too unlikely for my taste.

I get the feeling this is a couple of sock puppets being trained to be ready to upvote the main account when they are "heavy" enough. Your thoughts?
