I am getting a lot more spam comments these days. There are pretty interesting comments nowadays. Looks like either people have written intelligent bots or there are actual human beings posting spam comments. The comments would refer to some of the content and then make an opinion or ask a question. Would look like a legitimate comment, but if you check out the IP address / Email – they are spammers.
I’ve got WP HashCash setup on this WordPress installation. This comment spam protection plugin basically generates a hash key and compares it when the comment is posted. If it’s valid, the comment will be allowed. I am thinking how am I getting so many spam comments evenn with HashCash installed. Is it broken? Or is it the usual “cracker is one step ahead of the hacker” thingie?
Once again Akismet is the way to go 😉
