I find that many spammers try to hide comment spam by commenting (and trackbacking) to very old posts.

The rational is that if they drop a comment (and link) on an old story no one will notice it but the search engines.

I installed Spam Karma 2 to the blog last night. So far so good. No one spam got in yet!

You want to see an example of sneaky comment spam? Go here http://www.johnchow.com/index.php/dine-out-vancouver

Comments 3 to 6 are all comment spam. I removed the backlinks from the comments before approving them. He he he.

I don’t know why those spammers bother… There must be some money in it otherwise they wounldn’t be doing it.

Just imagine the amount of lost productivity from all this blog spamming with blog owners needing to manage their spam… errrr….
