I'm just recovering from a hitbot attack myself. I woke up one day and saw these 4 sites had signed up through the script, for a trade. These trades seemed like godsends. They were almost too good to be true - and they were.

In UCJ-C 4.3 and above (I believe) have the proxy detection feature. I noticed a high number of proxies (in and out) related to the new trades. I blacklisted them, but not in time to cripple the rest of my real trades.

I'm recovering now slowly, but surely.
