Banks & Internet Companies Are Teaming Up Against Spam. Finally!
2012-01-30 12:59:00 Spammers are the party-poopers when it comes to the Internet. Yes, the web helps us in discovering new information, connecting with other people and increasing our productivity. This has been going for a long time since the advent of the Internet but no one has come close to removing this threat and annoyance from the web in its entirety. Cyber Criminals always seem to be one step ahead. Even Google has not yet perfected its algorithm to detect and filter spam which is why we still end up with some ‘Lottery Winner’ mail in my inbox. The cases of spam, e-mail scams, phishing and general online malpractices are on the rise in India and the world and for once everyone is concerned about it. Some of the biggest Internet companies are teaming up with banks and coming up with a new approach to battling spam online.

How Blackhat SEOs Send Comment Spam
2011-11-15 09:00:00 I posted last week about how I dabble in the Blackhat SEO world. I mainly do this for my own personal knowledge on how search engines work, and how to improve my blog?s search engine results. The interesting thing about how these guys game the search system, you learn about how it all works. It?s kind of like hacking or modding in that way. When you pull the machine or the program apart to see how you can change, or manipulate it, you learn way more about how it was designed to work in the first place. Anyway, back on topic, so one of the big time goals for SEO professionals in the past was to increase their website?s PageRank in Google. Other search engines have their own search mechanism?s, but Google?s always seemed be the best one to game, because it always provided the best results for your search. That?s why they are number one! If you had a good PageRank, then the rest of the search engines would pick up your site naturally. Before I get any further, let?s look at what Page...

Facebook To Do Away With Spam Photo Tags; Adds Un-tagging Tools
2011-09-14 14:58:00 Stiff competition by Google+ has forced Facebook to revamp a lot of its interface in the past few months, and now we have another development: Picture Tag Screening. Spammy photo tags have been a major irritant for some months now, with people mass tagging their list in everything from cat pictures to animated cartoons. In an attempt to keep this in control and curbing unwanted photos, this new feature has been introduced. Earlier, anyone was free to tag a user in any photo and they had to manually go to the picture and untag themselves so that it wouldn’t appear on their profile. Now with the new untagging tool, users have additional options. Namely, they can block users, report abuse and also untag themselves, directly from the untag option. This applies not only to photos, but also to posts, notes and videos. A Facebook spokesperson in a statement to the Daily Mail, said,“One of the top requests we’ve heard is for the ability to approve these tags before they show up ...

SMSGupshup’s Platform To Remove Spam Calling And Spam Messages
2011-06-24 07:16:00 The government’s crackdown on bulk messaging threatens to harm a lot of businesses which revolve around text messages. To tackle this and at the same time keep cellphone subscribers’ interest in mind SMS Gupshup has come out with an application for operators and mobile marketers to easily update their do no call list. This will ensure that messages are sent to only interested people and not just blindly delivered to all of their database. SMS Gupshup claims that the government’s efforts haven’t really affected the number of spam messages because the guidelines that TRAI has set are too tedious to implement. The government comes out with the National Consumer Preference Registry (NCPR) twice a week. The NCPR is a list of all subscribers who want to either completely stop receiving bulk messages or don’t want SMSes about certain topics sent to them. Because the list is updated twice a week, it becomes time consuming and expensive for large companies t...

How we protect ourselves from spam while receiving customer inquiries
2011-02-02 14:32:00 If you decide to publish an email address on your website to receive customers’ inquiries, it is inevitable that you will very shortly begin to receive spam messages mixed with real support requests. You will then wonder whether there are efficient ways to protect oneself against unsolicited advertising and to receive only messages from website visitors and registered customers? The answer is “yes”. We have been providing customer support services for more than five years and have never changed the email addresses of our support team. During this period anyone could have added our addresses to spam mailing lists, but we receive very little unsolicited mail. The first line of defense is our mail server, which rejects over 90% of incoming messages at the mail pre-processing stage! Mail pre-processing involves several filtering steps: The sender’s IP address is checked against the spammers black list; the presence of the correct DNS record on the sender’s...

Spam Comments
2010-09-02 00:25:00 I've lately started getting a lot of spam comments on my old posts, so I've been deleting them as they come in (Hint to spammers, don't bother writing a convincing looking comment for the context when your username is GenericViagra).But as the problem is getting worse by the week I have now changed my settings so that comments left after a post has been up for 14 days will have to be moderated. Hopefully this won't be too annoying for regular or legitimate commenters, and it will save me time and energy I could better spend, I dunno, pissing about.
Spam Musubi for Brunch at Sunda?
2010-08-27 04:59:00 Last week, I was lucky enough to be chosen to take part in a "brunch experiment" for the trendy Asian hot spot Sunda. While some might fear the invitation to take part in an "experiment" at brunch, I felt this might be my calling. As a reward to devoted Twitter followers of Sunda (@sundachicago), we were invited to dine on some of their most popular brunch items while also acting as a focus group for some of their newest creations for the brunch scene. The Tempura French Toast, a signature of the Sunda brunch menu, was naturally a ubiqutous favorite of the table. When you take an already delectable breakfast staple like french toast and elevate it to the next...

Another Spam Attack Hits Facebook – Winamp!
2010-05-15 17:11:00 Nothing seems to be working for Facebook these days. If you checked out your Facebook stream today, you must have noticed something like this : What you are seeing here, isn’t actually a video. What it does is – misleads you – when you click on the link it takes you to a Facebook application called Winamp developed by Kiley Hodge ( which seems to be fake ) and then what it does is ask you permission to access your profile thus you forward this spam to your friends and this chain reaction seems to be never ending. Update – Its not just an application called Winamp, there are several more ! Please avoid any message that contains the text “ <Name> , this is without doubt the sexiest video ever! ” Solution ? First and foremost. Go to the application page, then block this application. Secondly, write on your wall about this problem, make your friends alert about it so that they don’t do the same mistake as some of your friends did. I...

News: what happens if you spam video view count?
2010-05-02 11:49:00 An Update On Our View Counts Video view counts reflect the YouTube community's interests and the grassroots popularity of videos. We periodically make changes that allow us to display consistent view counts and accurately reflect a "real" view based on video consumption, video streaming and spam filtering. Unfortunately, a few people still try to artificially manipulate their video's view counts. Some people game third-party view counts as well. That can make things unfair for everyone. Recently, we found spamming issues associated with the view counts on a small number of videos. The inflated view count number on these videos will be frozen until actual views catch up to the published, artificial, view count. Also, a few people have commented that their view counts are updating more slowly. Occasionally the speed with which views update changes -- sometimes it?s faster and sometimes it?s slower. But we are always working to make sure that the final view count numbers are an acc...
Tag Responsible- Facebook Marketing Strategy Which Turns Easily Into Spam
2010-04-18 18:37:00 Facebook is the place to claim a piece of the pie. Not being on facebook when pursuing free marketing strategies would be almost a crime. I want to talk today a little about one strategy which is called ?TAGGING? and it was designed to share pictures or videos with people who are included in either one. If you are not familiar with tagging let me quickly explain. Tagging can be done by adding your facebook friends to a video or picture and it will show up on his or her wall. But over time some eager marketers figured out a way that tagging can bring them closer to their goal when it comes to generating leads. Over the last year or so, I have watched the explosion of the tagging strategies and for some reason I also became what I l like to call ?Tagging Victim?. Now it is not as harsh as it sounds but I really thought that I would write a quick blog post to express my thoughts and concerns. When it comes to marketing, tagging people in videos will expose you on the wall and eventuall...

Google just announced that it has acquired Spam protection tool Re-Captcha. We tried to make it hard for computers to recognize because we wanted to give humans the scoop first, but we’re happy to announce to everybody now that Google has acquired reCAPTCHA, a company that provides CAPTCHAs to help protect more than 100,000 websites from spam and fraud. says their blog post penned (or typed perhaps) by Luis von Ahn, co-founder of reCAPTCHA, and Will Cathcart, Google Product Manager. reCaptcha for those who don’t know is the same service that makes you type funny sets of words while commenting or using services of many sites, say adding friends through an unverified ...

Keep Spam 100% off your blog
2009-09-04 20:00:00 The Trifecta to keep Spam 100% off your blog This week I’ve had emails or comments from two bloggers that are spending time and money removing spam comments or trying to prevent them in the future. I have 6 main blogs and at least 20 all together. I’ve never had a spam comment make it live on any of my blogs. Maybe I’m lucky, or maybe it is the way I have them setup. Here are the three things I have in place which have kept my sites safe from spam. Settings. Discussions. Moderate comments.The first three comments anyone leaves go to moderation (you can set this to any number you want). And I get an email for approval. Once I approve 3 comments their comments will be posted automatically (I still get an email of the comment) This way I trap a lot of people leaving spam comments like “Nice Blog, keep up the good work”. They are looking for a link back because the Lab (all my sites) are do follow blogs. Use Askimet plugin to trap spam. This traps 9...
