This happens on my forum a lot. But, once a week, I go over the forum member list and sort by 0 post count and that identifies potential spammers. After all, if someone signs up to my forum and doesn't post after a week (but has already filled out their forum profile page), then chances are, they won't be back. And, their real intention was never to post anyway. So they get instant ban. c:

Many times, profile page spammers are linking to illegal websites. These links can get your site banned from Adsense or even Google. You need to get them cleaned up right away to avoid consequences.
