Say Cheese!
I hadn't cleared out my spam box on Blogger in a while
and today I happened to remember to do it!
There weren't any 'real' comments there but a few
hundred spammers were trying to get through!
Here are a few of their opening lines that made me giggle...
- I like what you guys are up to here!
- You are so cool, bud!
- I need to thank you for this fantastic article!
- I definitely digg [sic] your post!
- But there are so many more sex positions to have!
- Did you know that there is a problem with your url?
- This would be so much more effective if your teeth were pearly white.
- Wonderful goods from you, man!
- Greetings! Very useful advice within this post!
- I don't understand. Could you explain more in depth?
Oh dear!

Lol. Those spammers! Great picture Betsy! love your smile :-)
ReplyDeleteThey certainly get an E for effort! haha.
DeleteI think I have had all of those comments myself.
ReplyDeleteIt's so annoying.
Yeah, but it would be worse if they actually showed up on your posts!
DeleteBlogger does a pretty good job of blocking them!
Oh gosh, these are so funny!
ReplyDeleteBut then again...they are spammers!
Some are very persistent....same comment over and over. Good grief!
DeleteI've never had any spam yet. I do wonder why they bother.
ReplyDeleteI suppose if just one person clicks on their link and they can hack into something, it is worth
Deleteit to them. Still, I'm sure they leave thousands of comments before they get lucky.
Hopefully we have all become smart enough no know who they are!
Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteI always smile when I see them in SPAM folder....Busted!
Did you give up on growing your bangs?
Enjoy your evening!
Cheers!
Linda :o)
No, they're growing...that's why they're in my eyes! lol....
DeleteYour teeth sure look pearly white to me!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Silver. :)
DeleteIt's remarkably easy to compliment you, doll. Always has been.
DeleteLove your new sidebar photo, too. :)
DeleteThey're persistent! I always laugh at the ones Pat gets, too.
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful!
Pat's are a search engine thing....and with his content, you
Deletecan see why they are drawn there! lol...
Ha - very true!
DeleteCongratulates! You have just won €12,000,000,000! on the Blogger Best Blog of the year!. plese send me your bank details to pay the money into youre account.
ReplyDeletehaha..yes, EXACTLY! You won, too?
DeleteI bet that one didn't go into spam box. . . .
DeleteIf I win, do you want me to share?
DeleteNa! I've got too much money already. *cough*
Deletelol how did you draw #5?
ReplyDeleteCats getting kinky at your hive?
I barely get any spam on the cat's blog
Just a search engine log
Probably from a comment you made
Deletedrew that person, who was a spade.
haha.
No, it wasn't a search engine thing
Deletejust a comment hoping spam to bring
haha see, wasn't little old me
DeleteCan't blame the cat or Pat for that spree lol
Nobody to blame but the spammers.
DeleteThey want to hit you with a hammer.
Steal your password and your bank account
doesn't matter how small the amount!
Love your photo Betsy ~ you look younger by the day, but can you see through your hair . . . ha!
ReplyDeleteYes your teeth look plenty white enough already . . .
Quite an amusing bunch of messages ~ they are fairly typical and agree Blogger does an excellent job blocking them. I have a look at the 'suspended' comments from time to time and delete them all. I guess I get two or three a day . . .
Much better doing that I feel than using that dreadful word verification . . . . . .
Yes, anything is better than word verification!
DeleteNo 8 could be genuine if you sold them something from your shop.
ReplyDeleteBut they called me 'man'. haha...
DeleteNo 5. I wouldn't know about that, it takes two to tango!
DeleteHas age robbed you of your memory? lol...
Deletelol You gotta love their effort, if nothing else!
ReplyDeleteYes, they certainly do try hard, that is for sure.
DeleteGreat picture! Love those pearly whites, Bud!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Hilairous...evidently, they're not white enough!
DeleteYou are adorable ~~~~
ReplyDeleteYou are, too, my friend! :)
DeleteToo funny! I just cleaned out my spam and had some similar comments. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they know us all! haha.
Delete"CHEESE" We had our pictures taken Sunday for the Church Directory. We had to say cheese....HaHa. Oh yes, I get those spammers too. Some are quite funny and some down right scary.
ReplyDeleteI love the picture of socks and the Mister the other day on your blog...so cute...just made me smile from ear to ear.
You'll have to show us your pictures when you get them back. :)
DeleteThe Mister certainly has his followers! haha....Tiger, Socks and Whiskers just love him..competing for lap space and attention. lol....
What did spammers do before the Internet?
ReplyDeleteThat is a very good question! Some other nasty vocation, I'm guessing...
DeleteHi Betsy - spammers are painful .. so irritating one needs to spend time sorting out the morass - fortunately not too many. I ignore them and go delete for ever - till they return ... wonderful Cheesey picture - looks like a very posh good cheese to me - excellent photo!!!! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteRight...not too many get through....good for Blogger for putting up such good filters!
DeleteHaha, I am glad you take it all in stride and can provide a laugh. Otherwise, it is so easy to get annoyed by it all. I deal with the same thing and appreciate a clever spammer but wouldn't mind if they stopped trying.
ReplyDeleteDon't hold your breath, Gary! haha... they are persistent, aren't they?
DeleteHope you're doing well....I need to come over and see what you're up to ...
hope school is going well.
To this day, and I have been "Blogging" since the beginning--honest--I have not figured out what the spammer is trying to do when they send their "thing" or post it on my blog or on any blog. I wonder what their goal is?
ReplyDeleteIf you click on their link you can get a virus, right? At least that's what I've always thought....and once they've
Deleteinfiltrated your computer they try to get access to your passwords, etc.
Ha ha spammers, what they leave behind them is usually nonsense. In my blog post today of Random Thoughts I put a link to your blog, since I got the idea from you I gave you credit. Come on over and say hi :)
ReplyDeletecoming right over! :)
DeleteI'm disappointed now that almost no one ever spams me! haha
ReplyDeletenow, how is it that you get so lucky???
DeleteHa, yes. I seem to have been spared the spam lately.
ReplyDeletewell, lucky you!
DeleteToo funny, I have seen some of these and more...the sentence structure if always off.
ReplyDeleteyep....you can tell English is not their first language....or second!
