Rules and regulations on the forum have been mentioned several times before with
others suggesting a feedback limit or a set age on an account for posting, but
I think the best option is for a moderator to manually comb through all new threads
before they get posted on the forum.
This unfortunately tends to clog up conversation, but it seems like the only
full-proof way of getting rid of the spam here. I check the forum maybe once
a week and when I do it's always filled with these scams.

They’ll just change their bot to answer the last post of each topic¹ instead

They attack about once a week too. Bad timing for you
All posts (and replies) need approval? It's not that difficult if you "hire"
a person or two as forum mods that do only that. Or, as I've seen in a different
forum, you must have at least x amount of "quality" posts before you're free
to post without any checks and balances. Only some suggestions

That seems like a pretty big use of resources to deal with a minor inconvenience
that the existing forum mods already handle as well as can be expected.
