Yet Another Way Spammers are Killing the Internet

Filed under: Business Ethics, Marketing Trends/News, Media Ethics, Uncategorized — Shel Horowitz, Ethical Marketing Expert @ 1:37 am

Yeech! I just signed on to approve one comment and found 65 in my box. 63 were spam and two were legit. I marked them all as spam and hopefully won’t ever see another subject line of “buy Valium.” What do these people think they’re going to accomplish by spamming a blog that moderates posts?

If you suddenly find that I’m no longer accepting comments, it’ll be because I’ll have lost patience with these cretins. I wish I could force them to read the section of my book Grassroots Marketing: Getting Noticed in a Noisy World called “Spam: The Newbies’ Natural Mistake.”
