Yesterday, when I got home from work, I went online just to check on the comments and I found this unusual comment from Jehzeel Laurente.

Now what do you think is wrong here? This is obviously not from JehzLau because the blog address, ip address and comment content is different.
So what’s the lesson here?
When you get comments on your blog, make sure to check the following to see if the comment is authentic or just a spammy comment.
- Blog address – Comment authors usually link to their own blog.
- IP address – If you know the comment author, you might have an idea on where they live so you can verify their location using their ip.
- Comment content – Every person has his own way of writing. If you notice something different, either that person is a fake or just not in the mood.
Have you encountered this kind of spamming?
Since JehzLau comments on my blog, I basically have an idea on how he comments.
- Jehzlau usually writes in Tagalog Language.
- He also includes an expression such as “waaaaaaaa” in his comments.
So if you want to spam using his name, you should take note of these two ways on how to comment as JehzLau. Now let us start posing as him haha 
Update: Check out comment 9 of this post. It’s somebody posing as Ling, one of my regular readers too. For Ling’s sake, I’ll remove the link and edit the name, but the comment will still be there are an example.
Oh my. These spammers are desperate! Tsk tsk. I’ll double check my comments from now on, hehe

Hehe. I told you, spammers are now finding creative ways to spread their spam
It was keen of you to notice that the commenter wasn’t Jehz. Tama nga naman, wala kasing “Waaa” at the end of every sentence hehe.
WAaaaaaa

Why can’t they just use a different name? If the comment is appropriate, i can’t see any reason why I will delete it, unless of course it’s a link to a dodgy website.
Kung Hei Fat Choi na rin.

@Joni – Ah yes, I guess they saw that JehzLau usually visits here and tried to spam using his name. hehe
Thanks for visiting
@Karlo – Ah yes, Jehz is not jehz without his trademark “waaaahhh”, now if that spammer used Karlo.PinoyBlogero, I might have believed it.. hehe j/k
@yatot – Yup yup! I think there will be a yatot spammer soon. I’ll be ready for it! ^_^
@Blogoloco Mag – Well, since they know that they will be caught as spam when they use their keyword enriched author name. This blog is no-follow for commentators who have less than three comments so I won’t also delete the comment. ^_^
