Clueless referrer spammer
I got a slew of referrer spam from an outfit who’s trying to SELL people the secret behind promoting through blogging! I don’t get much referrer spam these days, so running this down was a worthy cause.
Get this, they send loads of referrers quickly, from the same IP address, using loads of different user agents, then switch to another IP address and then back.
The kicker is that one of those IP addresses are inside Google’s net block!

Matt, this isn’t good! Are they using the Google Web Accelerator, or Google wifi?
Oh, and this is so good I just have to show you exactly what they’re doing.
The spamvertized site is:
bloglegend.freewebteam.com
If you go to:
freewebteam.com
You’ll see that they think they can sell you the secret to SEO.
Hmmmm…. Wait a minute! This is the same outfit that’s spamming in such a way it’s glaringly obvious and just has to be spotted and banned?
And the Google cache of their site says there are data entry positions available… (dataentry.freewebteam.com)
Matt, get your red pencil out, these guys are too stupid to keep whatever Google mojo they’ve gained!
