WordPress Trackback Spam

    I have installed plugins that prevent comment spams, but this won't prevent trackback to be blocked. I've been spam by many MFA websites that most probably is from the same network with trackback, but they are not linking me on their website. May I know how do they do it and how do I stop it? Without disabling trackback?

    Thanks, and I'm using WordPress.

    One solution for TrackBack might be just to stick everything in a moderation queue.

    Sigh, stupid sites. Those spammer are all MFA sites. And I'm sure their owner are the same.

    It will be good to know another mean to get rid of those spammers.
