Oh wow, Terence Eden unlocked the Da Vinci Code of blog spam! 🎉 Turns out, some #spammers have evolved to the point where they can unleash a whole "conversation" in the comments section. Surely, this groundbreaking revelation will shake the foundations of #WordPress 🤣.

Sneaky spam in conversational replies to blog posts
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2026/04/sneaky-spam-in-conversational-replies-to-blog-posts/I'm grateful that my blog posts attract lots of engaged, funny, and challenging comments. But any popular post also attracts spammers. I use Antispam Bee to automatically eradicate a couple of hundred crappy comments per day.
Nevertheless, some get through. Here's a particularly pernicious one - it appeared as three comments ostensibly in reply to each other.
At first glance these look like normal comments. They each address the content of the blog post albeit somewhat superficially. The first comment looks like it was from a social media post sharing my link - I get a lot of those as pingbacks, so it initially didn't trigger any suspicions from me.
The second is ostensibly a reply to the first and continues the conversation. Again, a bit shallow, but seems to be engaging in good faith.
The third looks like yet another reply. They all have unique email addresses, none of them have set their username to anything overly odd, and none of the users have filled out their URl.
But notice, in the second one, there's a link to a dodgy casino! There's no https:// so it didn't jump out as a link.
All three came from the same IP address in the Philippines, so easy to block for now.
Each reply is spaced exactly 3 minutes apart which, in retrospect, looks a little odd.
Re-reading them carefully, they all look like AI slop. A plausible sounding summary, written in a casual style, but with very little semantic content. Seeing them as replies to each other primed me to think they were genuine because I'm used to spam coming in individual replies. Having the spam in the middle comment made it easy to glaze over.
Remember, there are no technological solutions to social problems. Sticking more and more barriers in the way of commenting only discourages genuine replies while the profit motive incentivises spammers to work around them.

@wordpress/build replaces webpack and Babel with esbuild, auto-generates your PHP script registration from package.json conventions, and requires zero config. It already builds all 100+ Gutenberg packages.

Dziękujemy #Wordpress, witamy #EmDash. No cóż, to jeszcze nie tak, ale powoli trwają starania o przejęciu tronu po najbardziej popularnym systemie #CMS. Jednym z pretendentów jest właśnie EmDash oparty o #AstroJS.
