Spy Comment: Hello webmaster, very nice site here, great work!

TOKYO (MacHouse) – If you have a blog website, you may want to check if you have received a comment similar to






Hello webmaster, very nice site here, great work! (See Screenshot 01.)






If you have, simply trash it. It’s a spy comment. Spammers often attempt to post comments test moderation ability.

So how can we tell if this is a spy comment? No. 1, the comment contains no key words specific to the blog article. They don’t want to post suspicious comments. They only want to test your moderation ability before exploiting your website. No. 2, if you ask Google about ‘Hello webmaster, very nice site here, great work!,’ you can find other websites with the exactly same comment.

Spammers… Most of them are stupid with lQs as low as those of crocodiles.
