I don't think we need to do that.  We can just observe that since 28th
January the poster has posted seven messages to Haskell Cafe on the
subjects of

* International Conference on Recent Theories and Applications in Transportation
* International Conference on Applied Data Science and Intelligence
* International Conference on Informatics Revolution for Smarter Healthcare

none of which have anything to do with Haskell.

My experience dealing with internet spam makes me think this course of
action is less likely to lead to a desired outcome than asking the
moderators to block the account!
