Deceiving comments
It’s been days that I didn’t open this blog’s dashboard because I am not planning to update it until today. Besides, I don’t have pending comments to approve so I didn’t take time to log-in. Now I am surprised to see 24 pending comments! All are spam comments because I don’t know them all and their URLs are all business URLs for weightloss, loans, etc. and it’s not filtered by akismet. It’s more than a month since I noticed that spammers are using the names of my loyal commenters such as Carol, Arlene and Julie. They think I won’t be checking on the URLs before approving their comments? Though the commenters are not just leaving links but a relevant comment on my post, I do still consider it a spam because they are not bloggers with sites that could interest me. Spammers are using their heads nowadays by leaving something (not just links) hoping they could deceive us, the blog authors.

I always call those “peronalized spam” *lol* … You can tell that they read the post, but it’s STILL spam. *lol*
