This one is actually a false-positive! The MyCell Spider v7 phone is from Balgladesh I believe.

It's still useful - I'll add it to the false positive list - thanks.

Spider v7 false positives included in v3.17.0 - thanks.

AMPXFBot also included in v3.17.0
 

I believe Webmeup's crawler is called BLEXBot - which we already identify.


If it's not already being identified as a bot, it could be that this is a new variant you're seeing which uses a new user agent string.

It would be useful if you could look through your web server logs to find that IP address and then identify the user agent that's using it - KnownBots works only on user agents - not on IP addresses.

Code:

Potential new bots detected list:
Code:
criteobot/0.1 (+https://www.criteo.com/criteo-crawler/)
mozilla/5.0 (compatible; amg-bot/2.1)

mozilla/5.0 (compatible; testbot/0.1; +in_the_test_phase,_if_the_spider_brings_you_trouble,_please_add_our_ip_to_the_blacklist._thank_you.)
mtrobot/0.2 (metrics tools analytics crawler; https://metrics-tools.de/robot.html; crawler@metrics-tools.de)
Weirdly enough the AMPXF-bot still shows up in "potential list", but if I go to e.g. the "online stats" it is correctly placed under the Robots tab :)
 
What's your average count for robots guys?

Right now I am sitting at 119 and it feels too much. Maybe I should start blocking some.

Always between 300-500. I frequently scan for malicious/dubious bots and ban them.

FYI - this one is actually a false positive - this is the MyCell Spider v9 mobile phone from Bangladesh.

I've added it to the false positive detection list - will be included in the next release of KnownBots.
