Opus 2014-324: A New Flavor of Spam

I had an interesting piece of spam today.  There was only one and it started like it was a genuine post.  I keep thinking that a legitimate comment might get shuffled over.  I was again disappointed.

The robot told me that some of my pictures were not loading well and suggested that he might have a solution for me at his web site.  The big problem with this is that I have not yet tried to put pictures on my blog.  I am thinking about it but life is too short to learn new skills.

So if you do have pictures, be aware that all helpful comments are not helpful comments.

  1. I get the spam that comments on my awesomeness and the awesomeness of my website and how awesome it is that they can find the answers to questions that can be found nowhere else. Good thing my ego doesn't need to be stroked or I might just buy into that foolishness.

    1. It must work on some people. Discernment is at a premium today.

      Have a blessed New Year.

      Grace and peace.

Comments are welcome. Feel free to agree or disagree but keep it clean, courteous and short. I heard some shorthand on a podcast: TLDR, Too long, didn't read.
