Not only do they get blasted almost immediately by the long-suffering Mods, the translations are mostly unintelligible anyway. One from a few minutes ago, suitably redacted, went :-

[redacted] is a reformist improvement that puts together fundamentally with respect to weight decline. It underpins a ketogenic diet and contains every single conventional fixing. The designers of [redacted] links to an outer site. built up the thing to improve your blood course that as such arrangements with your cholesterol levels, which holds your weight inside authentic cutoff focuses.

If only they would log them under Jokes ;-) And yes, I realise this is a bit of an obsession of mine as I've posted some previous examples.

It costs them nothing except a bit of time and they may get at least 1 fish on the hook...often more ... this makes it well worth a try for some people. Of course it may be that the more you get on your line the more you get paid. They will not just be trying their luck on this site! Some of their posts are here for a couple of hours before being removed so they may well attract a few people in the dead of night. Poor English? I can usually understand them...!
The spammers (and those that pay them to spam) usually couldn't care less about whether anyone here clicks on their links or not. They know that Google pushes sites up its listings based, in part, upon how many links from reputable websites (such as this one) Google's web crawling software finds for them. So the idea is to litter the web with loads of links, in the hope that Google will move a site from the 100th page of search results for 'technical college in Andhra Pradesh', for example, up to the first page. The spammers get paid for each link that remains on a site.

Some spammers will check back to see if their links are still here after a short while (in order to ensure that they get paid for them). If they regularly find that every single link they post has been zapped very quickly, they'll eventually give up trying to spam here. If, however, they were to find that all of their spam remained on this site, they'd then post many more such links. (i.e. getting rid of a few dozen spam links each day probably prevents a flood of several thousand spam posts every day). However some spammers clearly don't bother checking to see if their posts have stayed here and thus they continue to spam the site.
They *** me of aswell Canary, I always report them. Think they must have a computer that just chucks out spam to which ever address will accept them.
well done to the spam zappers, if it wasn't for them we would end up with six latest posts about keto (whatever that is)
ael have you not red the add? Lol
i have tony but i've always had difficulty translating Unwinism
whatever keto
well buy Peter-keto NOW!

diabetics who dont take insulin get ketosis and golly they loose weight. And so the belief grew up that a diet which produced a lot of ketones was GOOD !

My god they smell ( of ketone)

we have just missed the 100th anniversary of a 14 y old being given Dr Collips serum ( insulin ) in Toronto er General I think
for the very first time.
