SPAM! Wonderful SPAM!!!
« on: Wed, 17 March 2010, 08:39:12 »
As a weird interest, I tend to click on the new users as they sign up to see how many of them are obvious SPAM accounts (probably about half, if you wanted to know).  Most of them are just a shell with links to some garbage site in the "About Me" section.  Then today, I stumbled on this one.  Someone went through a lot of trouble to get this one filled out.  So much so that they borked the copy/paste on the Bio section.  I had a little laugh.  I might still be drunk, too, but whatever.

Nice.  Because if your night is missing one of those things, your doing it wrong.  If all of those present at the same time, well, you're a lucky person.

LOL, you must have the worst spam filters ever!

Mind you, I keep all my junk mail (just in case) so I might have the same one somewhere.

Make sure and report to me whenever you identify a spam account.  Typically when they finally post, it gets reported and they are deleted quickly.

The only spam subject line that made it into my long term memory: "Old man dies in Paris Hilton."

I'll watch the door, but expect a lot of PMs.  Really, it hasn't been too bad lately.  The past couple of weeks, though, it was like 50% of the new "members" were SPAM accounts.
