It sounds like any average vbulletin or phpbb board, you know how those things go: Sign up, get sent an email confirmation, can't do anything until you confirm, if they're set up that way. Almost all mailing lists require that step. There's no particular reason not to take them at their word.

What's happening to them is a pretty well known phenomenon by now, anyway. =\
