You know…you really have to hand it to spammers. They are the most persistent, dogged entrepreneurs I’ve ever seen, and trying to defeat them is akin to being…
A Spartan Poised to
Battle the Persian Army !
While in the past I used to get frustrated, pissed off even, recently I’ve implemented a different tactic, which is to simply laugh at the extent to which they are willing to make themselves…
Look Stupid !
In doing this, I’ve learned that there are some spammers that are just too funny to be true, and that watching them work makes for great comic relief throughout the day. Here are 6 of my favorite spammer comments.
Read Them and
You’ll See Exactly
What I Mean !
I hate to be an ass, but clearly you’re blind, because the RSS button is right in front of your face! First of all, most browsers have RSS buttons built in, but even then, most bloggers have at least one way to subscribe.
Does Anyone
Really Fall for This ?
There’s only one thing that goes on top here, and that’s the ladies! All kidding aside, this comment sounds innocent enough at first, until you realize that the link URL comes from
www.iamadumbass.com !
Hahaha, there’s nothing like being called out by some random audience member with what must be uber design skills. Look, I’m not saying my blog is the best designed blog on the planet, but it’s not bad. Clearly this commenter…
Doesn’t Understand
HIS Audience !
Wait, what? You’re so interested in the topic that you’ve been thinking about it a short time and not a long time? You almost had me, but failure to use proper English is going to be…
The Downfall of
This Spammer !
I can’t tell if this one is a Katie Couric wannabe, or a spammer with chocolate chips on the brain, but regardless, this is a horrible comment. Not only is this narrative impossible to decipher, but also useless. Why on Earth would anyone approve this comment unless they were hoping to get…
A Laugh Out of Their
Regular Crowd ?
I once spit out my coffee while reading one of these comments. Not because of the insincerity, but because of the way the commenter made reblogging sound like a surgical procedure. Can you implement it? I’m not sure, that sounds like…
A Medical
Problem !
So those are my top 6 funniest spam comments, what are yours? Let’s share the good ones in the comments below.

Anyway – I’m glad you enjoyed the story and I hope you’re having fun over at Marian’s “Spomment of the Day” page on Facebook. I had a couple of weird ones a while back – obviously they were using some sort of “comment spinner” but it was leaving ALL the variable statements in. Sort of like comment MadLibs, or something. I thought, “God, you’re even too lazy to come up with a spam comment – now you want me to pick my own variables and write it FOR you?”

Hi Wong,
Spammers come to a blog when they discover that their and others’ spam comments are not be cleaned out. Unfortunately, this is a problem that bloggers have to work with when they have a successful blog, but spammers will soon learn that they have no success if there is a good moderator.

Twitter: TheBadBlogger
January 17, 2012 at 1:59 pm
The 9 words limit is something to keep spammer away or to keep those people from commenting short sentence, the reason I do that because it let me concentrate on replying those that really wanted to communicate with me.
You can write a lot when you know more about the topic, for example, you can write extra tips you know about the post that you read, or you can talk about similar event that happen to you that relates to the topic, there are a lot of ways to comment, knowledge, experience, questions and even help to answer other people’s question in the comment section, this way you not only can write long comment with meaning, but you are also helping the people in the comment.
See, I wrote a long reply just so you understand, there are many ways you can write long comment, hope to see your long comment soon

Maybe you are right, maybe we should try to laugh at the spam.
But it will be difficult because now everytime I see a spam message I cringe.
If it’s to one of my sites I just act like a robot and throw them away. But if it’s on somebody’s blog I cringe, not because of the spam message itself but that the owner of the blog let the spam through.
Seriously, so many times I just can’t understand how the blog owner can’t see that it is spam. And everytime somebody let’s a spam message through (without deleting it’s link) he or she is rewarding the spammer with a backlink. The better we get at deleting spam messages the less useful it will be to spam. And then maybe it will get less…. although I am afraid spam is just a part of the internet that will never leave.

http://jahangiri.us/new/2012/02/18/the-top-10-signs-you-are-a-successful-blogger/#comment-7380
The guest post by Alan is great, though – too bad this drive-by spammer didn’t stop to read it, as it would’ve answered some of his blogging questions, and possibly caused him to rethink his entire life’s purpose.
I like to think it would’ve inspired him to dig a ditch – and crawl into it.
And of course, if any of your readers missed Abhi’s contest entry, I’m leaving breadcrumbs to it again this morning (poor kid’s Internet isn’t working – for the past week or more! – and he could use some extra support as the contest draws to a close – you know, the whole “button dance” of sharing and a comment or fifty?)

Anyway… Abhi’s internet isn’t working? That’s bad, but his got 300 + comment, that’s really awesome to me.
To be honest I hope the “40 simple ways” never won… I mean I can write 100 or even more “simple ways” to never run dry… I remember a year back where there is a contest called Traffic Generation, believe it or not, tons of people wasn’t impress with the selection of the winner.

Hey, even Ana Hoffman from Traffic Generation Cafe said in the comment “didn’t think Brankica’s post was special”
Well… the post title is “50 website traffic source you should milk like crazy”
But none of the 50 source actually mention using “PPV” a new traffic source which I mention in one of my contest post… want to say unique… I think I am… want to say up to date content… will I just give one… so why wasn’t I in the winner’s list? That’s the question.

Now, that’s an interesting discussion, Wong, worthy of its own post, I think. If A hires B to write comments on his behalf, and B is a real human being who writes thoughtful comments that show he has quite probably READ the post on which he is commenting, then B is diligently doing his job but also is a human being in his own right who is just as likely to click a link or buy a product as any other (and presumably has gainful employment to ensure his ability to buy and pay for things). I don’t think we should condemn B for the actions of A, provided B also fulfills our expectations as bloggers for thoughtful comments. That said, I think it’s rather sad to put that much work into making A look like he’s not a jerk.

Well, I ask a friend who is a professional freelance I hired and he said, I doesn’t need to approve this person’s comment because I doesn’t need it.
He said, I had better use the time to build my business then approving and replying to this dude who doesn’t seem to reply when he was contacted.
His assume is he had hired a company or a team to do this commenting.
Well, B really does read my content and I do appreciate but since the name was A, I had no choice but to trash them all, I mean I doesn’t really need so many comment to be honest since I had so many readers already.
I think I should write a post about it, and it should title “Is it right to hire someone to comment for you?”
What you think?

I agree with Holly. Sometimes, even I get comments whom I don’t get reply back when I reply to their comments. But that doesn’t mean the comment was spam because some of those comments were actually the most thoughtful and important comments on that post! So you never know!
Wong, I guess you should give that guy what he deserves
But again …only do so if you think that the comment is totally original and not copy-pasted.
And oh! You don’t really need comments? Hey Wong! That’s something unusual I’ve heard from a professional blogger

Ya, I’m here to write what I know, and answer questions only, I don’t want any praise of how good or how unique my blog and content is, I’m here to help not here to fight for more comment

Hey BB! Well, to be honest, it’s not really a bad thing to comment in large numbers. Even I sometimes make about 20-30 comments in an hour if I love a particular blog! And on some blogs, I’ve made more than 200 or maybe 300 comments! Those blog owners are my friends and I’ve been following them for a long time. So who knows…this person, Mario, might just be in love with your blog! I guess you should give him respect Wong
But only if you surely believe that the comments are not just copy-pasted.

Well, while his comment is still coming in, I had contacted him through his blog contact form and till now he had yet to reply, I mean if he is commenting on my blog, it shows that he is online and why in the world does he not reply to my email? Strange, right? Surely he had hired someone to do it for him while he is sleeping but I will wait a day and see if he reply to my email, if not… I can assure those comment are paid comment. To my knowledge that’s not acceptable on my blog.

And that’s the bottom line. It’s YOUR blog.
You get to make the rules.
Ahh, power… omnipotence…
Fun for a bit, then kind of boring as the novelty wears off. Anyway…
Will be looking for that post!

Gosh, Raaj, come read my blog… just never leave one of those “great post, you have really inspired me for life” comments.
Don’t. even. think. about. it.
I know how tempting it can be to be contrarian. Do it all the time, myself.
But seriously, come visit. (I’m a professional writer – NOT a professional blogger.)

If you don’t, I will!
(Oh, pith and vinegar – I ran into your “minimum word requirement” and now must revisit my middle-school days of writing padding in order to fill the page. I toyed with the idea of setting mine to 35, but that seemed cruel. I’ve now set it to 5, but with a minimum of 64 keyups.
You have to have an extraordinary vocabulary to comment on MY blog – that, or type “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” a few times. And of course I’m just kidding about that. I won’t give away the exact numbers here IN PUBLIC.)

I think you missed one, Wong – the spammers are actually making my life easier these days with their bold heading intros.

Most of what lands in my spam or moderate folders starts with some kind of bold-formatted heading. Which is weird, for a comment. I haven’t seen ANY actual comment that starts that way. And I’m not talking about a trackback or pingback. There’s some comment spinner out there that’s just making it almost TOO easy.

Looks like something I’m going to find out, I will go do a research on this comment spinner and see what kind of comment spinner is that!

I’d be curious. Then again, even commenting on it here makes me think we’re cluing them in, so they can improve the next version. Kind of shooting ourselves in the foot to even mention it here.

Man, these are so funny! Its just plain dumb. I have seen crazy shit on these spammers.
I don’t give a … One spammer said I was a Bad blogger. I was like, “That’s ok!” “Wong is the bad blogger himself, and he is good at it!”
I just wanted to share that little story!

I love some of the spam comments that I get. Here is one of my most current ones, it really doesn’t make most sense.
“we came throughout a great web site that you simply could possibly relish. Take a look if you’d like…”
Is this supposed to tempt me to take a look at their site? Or is it a ploy to sell relish?
I don’t know what I would do without Akismet.
Thanks for the laugh!

Spammers, spammers everywhere.
Some of those were really funny, but I still saw some better ones on other blogs, I can’t actually believe that they got approved.
Also spam comments made by bots are just so funny, most of them are way out of the topic, at first when I was new to wordpress and I saw these bots commenting on my blog I was like “wtf”.
