And whaddyaknow? I chance upon 42 Comments on this Blog, and another 38 comments on my other site, awaiting moderation. It's all SPAM!!!!!
Seriously? I thought they have all been completely annihilated since safety and security measures (were they?) installed by Blogspot or Google or whichever. Not that I have anything against Hormel products, but what gives?
These Spammers now have gone a little bit sophisticated. They do painstakingly write a bit of nonsense (2 sentences, tops), hoping that somehow it hits something close to your Post, and then practically beg you visit their site... a link. It's not funny.
I promised myself I will suspend all "bitch activity" that I completely enjoy as a lifestyle preference, for 2013, but I am so close to going ballistic.
It's bad enough I don't post as regularly as I should and it's not like I have run out of material to write or rant about. Frankly, my dear spammer, I don't give a rotten rat's ass what you sell or advert or even what you have to say about nothing in particular. If you will notice, I moderate my comments, so it's primarily between you and me. Mano a Mano. And unless I approve any of your inane and mindless comments, they are all forever gone in the Internet-verse!
I do have to commend your creativity for trying or attempting at some level of smarts albeit still puerile. But meanwhile, back at the ranch, go fish or something.
And for my parting shot, here's nothing. 'Nuff said.
Spam is rife at the moment and it only seems to be getting worse. Still, it artificially increases the number of hits I get, so it's a double-edged sword in that it makes me feel popular.
ReplyDeleteSensei Addman, great to hear from you. Yeah, I had the same notion that my popularity soared by the page hits. Until I noticed that the Spam links were selling me some vaginal jelly or something. WTF!
ReplyDeleteFor great deals on anti-spam, visit my website!
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, there has been a marked increase in spam comments over the past couple of months, mostly on old posts. They should be landing on your spam comments page; Blogger does not actually block them altogether, to prevent false positives from being zapped. If they are showing up on your moderation page (or being published, if you don't moderate), there's a thread about that in what passes for a help forum these days.
I wish SPAM would DIE die die!
ReplyDeleteI've miss you. xx
