How Stuff Works: Comment Spam 0
Comment spammers come up with comments that look as if they mean something, until you read them closely. Here’s how they do it.
Posted below the fold is a comment I received in which the spammer posted his entire spam comment without editing it. I put it below the fold because it’s almost 3000 lines long. Read the first few lines and you’ll get the idea.
The comment itself was caught by Akismet and has now been deleted.
