If GMs aren't able to stop automatic robot, who collect data by using fake account, than I doubt they are able to prevent to open other fake accounts.
Automatic robot generates specific, artificial traffic on site, which isn't hard to recognize. Please imagine user, who is logged every day (it's needed to scan transferlisted players), who check thousands players on TL every day and... who never bought player, set lineup, etc.

It's nowhere said he's using fake account, and since he has already a huge database he doesn't need to scan transferlist all day anymore.

I don't know what automatic robot you are talking about, but simple web browser plugins won't show you anything.

It doesn't matter, it happens and nothing will change it. Only thing, which could be changed, is to prevent to scan skills in future.

It's nowhere said he's using fake account
This database was created by automatic robot, scanner, script, whatever and no account (legal or illegal) is needed to do it. Currently skills of transferlisted players are visible by everyone, who don't have account in BB. And therefore it's impossible to prevent to scan these skills.

Here is example of another tool, which scan BuzzerBeater and is able to collect skills of transferlisted players:
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?client=opera...
And it is commercial tool too (Google makes money thanks display content of other sites).

Second Team:
Senzo Tanaka Is My Shidoshi
As an actual advert for this website was shown at the top of BB's site (where the scoreboard is displayed for supporters). I thought it was a legit site that BB had been working on. So silly me, I signed up without looking at the bottom saying it was not affiliated with the real BB. I immediately changed my password on BB shortly after signing up and seeing it wasn't a part of BB.

I normally buy supporter but right now I don't need it since I got relegated to a league where all other 15 teams are computer managed.

I also wanted to see what is it about...they also have skills of a lot of my players. They are outdated though since I'm training the important ones and they won't hit the market anytime soon, so I don't care... I received this e-mail today though:

We want to announce you that buzzerbeaterdb.com is now free for all registered members and the accounts will now last forever.
Registered members with a free membership will be able to view just 7 out of 13 player attributes.
Subscribers with a full membership will have the privilege to view all 13 player attributes right into game's website...

I just connected to this new site.
Try some of my player
Bought at 18yo on the market, now 20 years old,
out of the 7 stats available for free, 4 were trained and were up to date (inclu ups of 2 weeks ago)
My players have never been put on the transfer market since I bought them
I m not registered to anywebsite related to BB, even for help ...

There is an other reason to the data leakage
