If you see this text on your website or blog: “Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!” ..your site has just been co-opted by a comment spammer.

A new crop of scam spam is going around, with subjects like “Copies of Policies” and “Changelog as Promised” and talking about things like the “Ocean, Warehouse or EPLI policy”. They are short – to the point – and spam scams. They contain links that go to malicious sites such as https://web.archive.org/web/20121118080105/http://abstract.nassassin.com:80/wp-content/plugins/counterize/mail.htm/, http://flexjobb.se/wp-content/plugins/mail.htm, and https://www.theinternetpatrol.com/brick-wall/, and come from sender names including Brock Buchanan, Darien Forbes, A. Simmons, and A. Blanton.
