If You Spam Digg, Learn English

Gaming Digg.com has gone international. Or perhaps just retarded, as traffic-minded spammers shuffle in with broken English and a generally poor master plan.

Okay, so it's just the one case I know of, but with spammers, just like cockroaches and mice, where there's one, there's more. This is just one that caught going for the extra scrap of cheese.

You won't find the thread about ambatchmasterpublisher or the ambatchmasterpublisyoutubevideo.blogspot.com (wouldn't recommend going there, I didn't, for fear of what nasty things might await) blog on Digg anymore. We only mention it because it's a humorous case study of a Digg spam plan gone wrong.

This particular spammer didn't polish up his English (or his brain) before submitting the text of a seemingly real news story, interlaced with that ridiculously nonsensical word, or whatever it is every other line in all-caps. The headline was the above gibberish followed by the gibberish blogspot (splogspot) URL.

103 Diggs it got, from a number of enthusiastic users who thought the site listed was "on dot," and users who "have become surprised with joy and thought how great it is."
