Being Spammed on LJ

[kudagirl]

I got a comment on a post from 2009 on buffydrabble .

Some douse named left a comment which you can't
even see on the community.  I got an email that it was left on
my post.  Their comment was in the form of a youtube video.
It was in a wasn't in English so I don't even know what it was
really about, but there were lots of comments on youtube
from others on LJ.

It was terribly odd. Spammers be spamming.

Just part of life and I be moving on.

I got the same thing on an old riters_r_us post. Just called it spam and deleted it. Got something similar on DW and reported that person as a spammer.

It was just so odd. I went to the post and didn't see the comment there. Went back to the email and saw the link to youtube. Yep, spam it is. I reported it to LJ.

I got one of those on an old post, too. Obviously a spambot journal. I just deleted it. Such is life on the internet.

Yes, I think it was spam. Reported it. Now the youtube account is deleted as well.

I got one of these, too. I just deleted it-- glad to know I wasn't the only one.

Strange thing was, the comment didn't even show on the community. It only was in an email to alert me that there was a new comment. Very odd.

This post was from 2009 and on a community that doesn't have many posts anymore. Very weird.
