Trackback spam has gone up sharply over the last couple of weeks. I can clearly identify 3 or 4 different sources but haven't had the time to look into them.
On a whim, I sent off an abuse report to bloghotel.org for one particular spammer using www.bloghotel.org/norbert/ for the last couple of days (spamming for drugs and pills). Within 15 minutes, I received a reply that the user's account had been shut down. Good work, thank you!
That will probably not stop "Norbert's" spambots from spamming for that URL for a while, but at least he won't profit from it any longer.
Morale of the day: Send abuse reports, some people out there are actually listening.
