In reply to Barry.

Annnnd ANOTHER just popped up. One of the tells with these things is the fish-smelling email addresses, in the last several cases from a putative ISP called “ait-light.com.” Another is the usernames themselves: some name or other, typically misspelled, followed by a long string of random numbers and/or letters, the name given not even close to matching the requested username. Still another is how these email addresses all come flooding in right on the heels of each other, even the gmail/hotmail/yahoo ones. Yeah, sorry, no.

What’s always puzzled me about it is just what the spammers are hoping to accomplish with these stupid onslaughts. So they DO fool some poor blogger and get registered; THEN what? What the hell’s the point?

Error happened.
