What you mean by "From google"? Company name google? If so, many bots are registered with that company name, also last two letters of name are capitalized.
Delete of the users, only one by one if using admin panel. You may use also SQL to delete most of those by single command run.

I have only managed to figure out how to remove the user data from the two main forum tables via SQL Statements but I don't know how to write a more efficient statement that will remove the customerid as the 'last post by' and reduce the post count of each forum by the number that has been deleted. These accounts are spamming my forum and blog. eMail Auth, Honeypot and Captchas enabled, they don't stop them, so if they are bots then they are getting round the security, but I'd say they are humans.
Deleting them from the admin panel will only allow them to sign up again with the same email, so they need to be de-activated and their entire post history removed.
The Nop Team should provide a way to delete everything by CustomerID except the account, so we can deal with this efficiently.
