I’ve got a pretty robust spam filter here on Siberian Light that usually keep the junk comments from making it onto the site. Sometimes I steel myself and take a quick look through the spam comments to see if a real comment has accidentally been caught by the filter.
There’s a trend for spam comments to be written by humans, to try and get around the spam filters, but usually they’re still little more than semi-literate nonsense. And then I received the following comment this morning:
HELP! I’m currently being held prisoner by the Russian mafia [SPAM LINK HERE] and being forced to post spam comments on blogs and forum! If you don’t approve this they will kill me. [SPAM LINK HERE] They’re coming back now. [SPAM LINK HERE] Please send help! nitip [SPAM LINK HERE]
So, what do you think? Is Nitip an inspired and slightly bored spammer? Or is he really being held prisoner by the Russian Mafia?

I am also spammed by this guy with this message a few times a week. A few weeks ago he had some other spam message, with the same spam links but a different message. Then he started with this russian maffia stuff. The first time I enjoyed the creativitiy and left his comment, taking out the spam links. But after getting already over 10 of these spam comments is annoying.
