Spammers Don’t Stop For Christmas
While most of us are feeling well and truly stuffed from the mammoth amount of turkey and trimmings we’ve consumed over the afternoon spammers continue to unleash their rubbish on unsuspecting boards across the Internet.
Thanks to the invention of automated posting bots the spam barrage continues, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for 365 (366 if we’re making the leap 
) days a year. Let’s take a look at a couple of statistics from my honeypots over the festive 24 hour period:
- 40 spam accounts registered for the boards
- The spammers posted 35 posts over the 24 hour period in 30 topics
However most spam posted seems to be pretty automated, so maybe the head honchos of spam give the human spammers the day off; we can at least hope they do .
