    This evening I have been getting quite a lot of jibberish spam in my comments, on two different sites. I'll get something with nothing but stuff like "sdhiaosdjsadao cjssicovjsdifosdjfiosdfisdojf.com fdjifosjdfpsodofksdao fadspofsadfposdf sdfhioasdfoidsj foicvjxoci vjcibohuirrhewru" in the comments from multiple IPs including one in Sweden and one in Russia. Before a couple hours ago I've only seen spam that was actually comprehensible (kind of) and had an actual url attached to it. Anyone been getting this lately too?

    Somebody must be testing an auto-comment tool like scrapebox.

    Forget it. You can't to do much about it.
