SPAM
-
Hi,i have some problems with spam comments these days…i’m not sure that are spam.
1.Akismet find out all that be spam.
2.Most of comments are like “This is just what I was looking for. I did not expect that I’d get so much out of reading your write up! You’ve just got yourself a returning visitor” “I just added this feed to my bookmarks. I have to say, I very much enjoy reading your blogs. Keep it up!” “Just what I was looking for, appreciate it for posting . “There are many victories worse than a defeat.” by George Eliot.” etc…
3.In every post are this comments.
4.At the link and author are name like “web hosting” “vps” “virtual server” but also people name and e-mails that appear to be real.
Are these really Spam? -

YES! That’s human generated spam created by unscrupulios people who get paid to spam our blogs. Click the spam link so Akismet learns. Over 80% of all “comments” submitted to WordPress.com blogs every day are spam. The vast and overhwleming majority of “information” on the internet is also spam.
