Yep, no id list on caller id. That’s a giveaway to spam or scam caller.

Hmm.. another scammy phone call. This one just calls and hangs up on the answering machine if you don’t answer it, but it sits there silently for almost a minute before it actually hangs up so it leaves a blank message on machine.

If you call back you can’t get through, says call cannot be completed at this time.

Supposedly it’s the American Future Fund, but I can’t verify that. It’s a republican political call essentially asking for money or doing a poll or survey. It depends some people have gotten asked for money and others have gotten the automated survey.

Either way it’s crap. I’m on the Do No Call List and it doesn’t work.

I wish they would stop calling.

Spam Commenting is on the Rise!

Y’know I checked my comments four days ago and cleared them out. Since then I’ve got 1,008 spam comments, and four real comments, that’s just out of hand.

I’m not going to approve your spam comments so stop trying. If you want me to post a link to your site, if you want to advertise your site then hit the Contact button up top and maybe we can work something out. So you might as well just stop trying as they’re never going to get posted live, they’ll just keep getting deleted. That little sign up there says it all, No Spam, Today, Tomorrow, Ever!

On my other sites I’ve put capthcas on the comments, I guess I have to do that here as well. It worked very well and cut comment spam by about 95%, which is pretty good.
