			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently, I have been receiving a large amount of a different kind of comment spam on my WordPress blog.</p>
<p>In an effort to get around the <a href="http://akismet.com/" target="_blank">Akismet</a> spam protection, they have created several variations of the same kind of poor English, brown nosing comments… that effectively mean nothing.</p>
<p>The whole point of them, is to allow their URL to be posted in the “Website” field of the comment.</p>
<p>I recently had one on <a href="http://www.alexjamesbrown.com/gadgets/fitting-a-backlit-keyboard-to-a-dell-e6400/#comment-3200" target="_blank">this post</a>, to which I approved the comment, and later realised it was actually spam – so simply edited the comment, removed the URL, and left a reply underneath.</p>
<p>Here are the kind of comments (complete with spelling errors and bad English)</p>
<p>I’ll edit this post when I come across some more…</p>
<blockquote><p>Advantageously, the post is really the freshest on this laudable topic. I fit in with your conclusions and will thirstily look forward to your incoming updates. Just saying thanks will not just be sufficient, for the exceptional lucidity in your writing. I will at once grab your rss feed to stay privy of any updates.
