The bots are getting smarter

Filed under: General — site admin @ 2:54 pm

Someone seems to have either written a bot that posts innocuous messages in an attempt to get an email address slipped in as one that writes valid comments. I was suspicous of the first two this morning, but I approved them anyway. I figured that I would keep an eye on my trackback/comment posts. Sure enough I have three outstanding posts with similar email addresses to the earlier posts.
The spammers are getting smarter… good thing there is built in moderation in Wordpress to protect me from myself. :)
