Flattery By Spam Will Get You…

I regret I don’t know Russian since I cannot read about 60% of my blog comments, but among the rest, I get so many nice things that people say! It really warms my heart that people can be so kind, they even say things that are not relevant to my blog posts.
Your website came [...]

I have had a hair tearing hacked WordPress blog experience here over the last 2 days. I don’t know why, but it really knocked my knees out, and I am reeling to figure out why this has gotten to me on an emotional level. That even sounds silly seeing [...]

Good gravy, if you are going to send me spam-mail, at least make it a worthy effort? This one “Your Tax Refund” from supposedly the “Canada Revenue Agency” makes those Kenyan inheritances and dutch lottos seem legit. I really expected more from Canadian Spam, and I am way disappointed in [...]

My Inbox Reeks of Stinky Tofu

On his custom tour of Shanghai a few weeks back, Jeff Utecht provided sufficient warning to be wary of “Stinky Tofu” on sale in the streets. I never had the pleasure there, but cleaning out the email inbox brings up similar thoughts.

Spammers Are Like, So Dumb

I’m going to get worried when email spammers finally develop good writing skills. Today, I earned another pile of money, a million pounds courtesy of Microsoft (hey they have gazillions to spare, believable, eh?)

Use a forged emailed address that is from cox.net? dead giveaway. Dumb. [...]

Spam Karma 2 Is Da Boss

Wow, wow, and wow… I am very tempted to ponying up some paypal dough for Spam Karma 2, the powerful plugin for Word Press 2. It assigns incoming comments and trackbacks a karma value, based on your moderation habits, content in the comment, remote blacklists, and more.
There is a raft of options for you [...]
