There is a suspect user in my review queue, apparently because of this recently added feature:
Discourse 2.4.0.beta11 Release Notes
Suspect users sent to review queue
Suspect users - those who have viewed less than one post and one topic but have customized their bio - are now sent to the review queue. Such users have a high likelihood of being spammers, as most users browse the site before taking time to fill out their bio.
Enable the approve suspect users setting to try it out!
However…
Upgraded to the current beta and had a flood of users pop up in the review queue. These users had been imported from an old vBulletin database, and have yet to log in to the new Discourse forums. Thus they have full bios, but no read posts.

We now skip users created more than six months ago, or as a result of a migration.

Thanks. I’ll try turning this feature back on after we next upgrade.
