A new kind of comment spam?
During the last days I get an incredible amount of comment spam in my blog. But it is not “normal” spam. First it contains links to CNN, Google, Adobe etc. and second it contains links with the nofollow tag. Additionally two of the three links contain a non-valid “ref-tag” with mentioned “itsok”. (I added spaces to the links so that they get displayed as plain text)
I don’t understand what these spammers want to achieve as this is not the typical backlink spam. A new kind of Google Bombing? I don’t think so… Fortunately I got them with a filter…

Update: I found in Scotts Blog something about this nonsense spam. Scott thinks that spammers are testing out some filters resistance to swap URLs in the long run … We will see, what happens.
