i provided charity hosting, and for the past 3 days, I got tons of requests,
and all of them from spammers looking to spam using their free account.
Anyone know a way to avoid spammers signing up for free hosting?

Thanks again
Jack

Well, you can make the process non-automated. In other words, people must
contact you via email to ask for a website. You can also ask for proof that
they are a non-profit organization (Articles of Incorporation and
Registration Number for the organization with their state). You can also
warn them that if their site is NOT related to a non-profit organization it
will be deleted immediately. Then all you have to do is check out their
websites.
