Description

User http://drupal.org/user/320858 ("miadeos") is claiming false information in his/her profile.

Same for http://drupal.org/user/323405 ("villas"). Both accounts are just about a month old.

I'm not sure what policy there is on this, if any, and I'm not sure we want to get into policing user profiles, but I do not know who these people are. They have never worked for pingVision, and I suspect some other companies might be surprised that they purportedly worked for them as well.

Any thoughts?

Same thing for http://drupal.org/user/237477 ("altamiraweb"). I never knew Lullabot and pingVision had so many people in common!

A lot of the keywords in those profiles look very similar to each other, especially in the miadeos and altamiraweb profiles. I wonder if they aren't the same person.

I don't mind if some admin wants to spend his/her time blocking these users. I#d oppose having an official policy becasue then we'd _have_ to do something. :p

Banned and removed the company references. I'd say that we don't need a policy on this but if a company sees people listed that shouldn't be they can make an issue and deal with it on a case by case basis.
