I’m starting to see a handful of spam comments getting through.
They are taking the form of “…wrote an interesting post today on…” – the “person” making the comment and their URL look reasonable enough, except the URL points to a copy of the original post and a shed load of useless adverts. For example:
[…] The Social Programmer wrote an interesting post today on DDD6 – The Recruitment Panel – Your help is needed!Here’s a quick excerpt Colin needs your help! Whilst we’re still voting for the DDD6 sessions, … : Founder of Girl Geek Dinners and software Engineer at Cardinal Health. She has grown up around technology … Insurance Services in Glasgow. His team writes enterprise applications for internal customers using […]
The same trick has come from a couple of domains, I’m tempted to blacklist anything that has “wrote an interesting post today on”, however not right away.
Has anybody else hit upon this problem? Any solutions?
I’m using WordPress 2.3 with Spam Karma. I’ve not looked at Akismet, should I be running that too?
Thanks in advance.

Oh the irony! The first comment on this post (Insurance » Comment Spam – The Return? October 18, 2007 9:50 am ) is spam – which I’m guessing you’ll remove.
Hee hee! No spam over here for the time being. All three of my WP blogs remain spam free.
Consider using the Akismet plugin for SK2 and Bad Behaviour. Had to turn off Bad Behaviour a while back due to some issues, which cause an increase in the spams caught, but still SK2 and Akismet are still doing the business so nothing got throught to the front end!
