The best way to stop them from posting there right now is to prevent them from registering in the first place with plugins such as BotStop, Registration Restrict Logger, Akismet, StopForumSpam, and so on.
Add Pages to Vanilla with the Basic Pages app
It might also be manual spam. Best advice, don't make profile public visible, and if you are like me I'd disable activity, it is mostly useless rubbish anyway.
grep is your friend.
@x00's and Shadowdares' is best advice.
if you decide you want wall - maybe this will help

I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.
Also, if you are running 2.0.18.8 remove the Activity-View permission on the guest account.
