Thanks to god they didn't spam to mailing list directly.

If tons of spam accounts are getting created continuously, then I think locking
bugs won't help. IMHO the only way that will help is ask RedHat to set
a more strict
anti-spam procedure when creating new accounts.

Pretty much this. I remember seeing similar spam 1-2 months ago and was a little amused.
Back then it DID hit the packaging mailing list as well, unfortunately.

We probably need one of those "I am human" captchas as part of the registration process.
Not sure what is Red Hat's policy on this?
