A Serving of Spam

Spammers are funny. Oh I’m sure they don’t mean to be.  In fact I’ll bet they’re deadly serious about trying to fool the unaware and the uninitiated into posting their messages and spreading the word on whatever they’re hoping to sell.   You may know that the first time you post a comment here, it must be approved.  After that initial approval, you can post without my interference!  Although I still have control and can delete, edit and alter anything on the site.  I tend to fix spelling and grammar mistakes if I catch them but that’s it.  I won’t mess with your message.  So the spammers don’t have a fighting chance here.  I simply delete their attempted posts.  But I get a chuckle out of them because they are designed to try and fool the web master into thinking they’re legit.

Oh the compliments they send, often in broken English!  Here is a sample:

“We have to say that for the very last few of hours I have been hooked because of the extraordinary posts on this blog. Continue to keep up the wonderful give good results.”

“This is really an awesome post.  The story is cool.  I accept it as a story.”

“Thanks for the post buddy.  Yeah, I totally agree with you.”

Then there are those who take the negative tactic, hoping to draw me into a little flame war as I defend myself from them.

“His concepts are intriguing, but not practical, I don’t feel it truly is great.”

“If I could say just one point about this site it could be structure! I imply, I had been so distracted by the clashing colours that it had been pointless to consider to study the website. What exactly are attempting to undertake below just? No person can examine this can be if it appears like a child smashed a box of Crayola with your page! Be sure to do something about this.”

And that’s just a wee sampling!  Just like links and attachments you aren’t expecting, this approach must work often enough or they wouldn’t do it.  The strange sentences are accompanied by a website address to a gambling, porn or other cash-friendly site.  Nice try guys and gals.  You won’t succeed with me but thanks for the amusement!
