spam getting out of control on Blogger

    Has anyone noticed the spam is getting out of control on Blogger?

    I have a bunch of Google Alerts set up for my company's products. Look at what I got this morning (everything looks legitimate until the last line):

    ********************

    Phosphatidylserine-Endurance Enhancer
    By glrfpe(glrfpe)
    Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a naturally occuring compound found in many foods such as...
    Lesbian Strap On - http://lesbian-strap-onhugujc.blogspot.com/

    ********************

    Oh, and by the way, when I follow the links, there are often Adsense ads for singles & dating, sexual performance, credit reports, etc.

    Roughly 2 out of 3 new blog alerts for my products are illegitimate like this one. I thought Google to a strong stance against porn? To say nothing of purportedly being anti-spam. Does anyone know what's going on here?

    Thanks
    PB

    Never noticed it to be honest.

    I read the post title and assumed it was three years old. Spam has always been a problem with Blogger. You get what you pay for, really.
