Tonight i've received roughly twenty comments with a similar M.O.:

all from a facebook.com address and appear legitimate, except they've been cut and pasted from another website's comments section, and have little or nothing to do with my post.

Any one else experiencing these nasties?

Happens all the time…sometimes the idiots use google and yahoo as well, they think you will view them as trustworthy sites and approve their comments, which most blogs will auto-approve comments from the same sender going forward, and then they can switch the URL.

 

Mark em' as spam!
