Sneaky

Spammers are always waging an ever-escalating war, and it’s interesting to note what tricks they get up to. Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of hits with referrer strings back to various top-level domains, obviously hoping to show up in a site statistics page. And now, I’ve seen referrer strings that are actually actions to secretly add someone’s RSS feed to your own portal page (mainly with Yahoo so far).

I’d be impressed, if they weren’t such sleazeballs.
