SPAM for September 2011

How ‘not’ to post a comment

Daniel here, here’s just another word on how not to post comments!

For the first week in September, I was absolutely ‘plagued’ with SPAM comments from a number of spammers all trying to gain links mainly to the same .mobi and .ch sites.  There was 191 in total and I spammed the lot!

They applied a variation to nearly every post on the blog and must have worn their spinner out!

Here’s a selection of some of the spam which shows how not to post a comment:

I mean; a comment like:

‘Exceedingly educative bless you, There’s no doubt that your trusty audience may possibly want way more stories like this carry on the exceptionally great effort’

…on a ‘Privacy Policy’ page?

Hmmm!  Never knew my Privacy Policies were such a good read!   :0)

Ok, so we know what’s going on here guys, but it’s a non-starter on my sites!  Generally speaking, around 95 to 98% of these types of comments will be either ‘spammed’ or ‘junked’.  What a waste of time!

Other spam comments this month included this ‘pearl’ from a guy call Adam Findlay-Brown, also on my blog Privacy Page:

‘This post is so educative its kept my blog going just by linking to it’

Erm… I don’t think so Adam!  — SPAM!!   :0)

I’m all for backlinks, but if you want a comment to appear and stay on this blog, make it ‘suitable and ‘appropriate’!

I was also plagued with emails from ‘Allison Holmes’ spamming her Windows 7, Office 2010 and Adobe CS5 software.  She uses an email address ending in ‘billigdisneyland.de’ and she must live in Disneyland if she thinks I’m going to pay the extortionate prices being asked through her spam emails!

I also received a spam comment from someone who totally cocked it up and left the spun alternatives in the comment!!  Which read:

{Simply|Just} {want to|wish to|desire to} say your article is as {astonishing|amazing|surprising|astounding}. The {clearness|clarity} in your post is {simply|just} {spectacular|nice|excellent|cool|great} and i {can|could} assume {you are|you’re} an …

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with some pics to drive the message home a bit, but instead of that, this is excellent blog. An excellent read. I’ll …

Better luck next time ‘Mike’!!

(I’ll be really kind and spare your surname on this occasion!)

To end…

Never feel sorry about SPAMMING crappy comments!  The thoughtless, misguided, sometimes just plain dead stupid spammers that send this stuff out cause site owners a lot of time that could be spent on better things other than ticking spam boxes and deleting!!

Just SPAM it, confirm …and smile!! :0)
