I’ve gotten the same comment spam three times recently. What’s interesting is that it made it past Akismet’s filter each time.

It’s always from the same IP address and same email address, and the content has the same form every time:

I have to say, that I could not agree with you in 100% regarding White on black or black on white?, but it’s just my opinion, which could be wrong :)

I have to say, that I could not agree with you in 100% regarding AFI Top 100 Films List, but it’s just my opinion, which could be wrong :)

I have to say, that I could not agree with you in 100% regarding t!, but it’s just my opinion, which could be wrong :)

And then from the same guy

I couldn’t understand some parts of this article t!, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.

And with each post a link to some dumb link farming page with poorly-targeted ads on it. I wonder why Akismet doesn’t catch it. I guess with content like that it’s pretty hard to tell whether or not it’s really spam. (It’s reads pretty typical Ham rather than Spam.) Best of luck, I guess, to the young gentleman on the bad guy end of things. I hope he enjoys making the internet worse for everybody.
