Comment Spam - Examples of Good And Bad

OK, comment spam is not good but there do seem to be some examples of considerate spamming!

As I've mentioned before, all comments are moderated on this website so I can see everything that's being written. 2 comments recently caught me eye.
 
The first from "Andrew" is advertising the same product Kieron has discussed:

I’m a bit pissed at some of the so-called ‘experts’ who sell me their ‘winning strategy’ that delivers ZERO. I’m sick of this single-technique get-rich-quick crap, so have been looking for a membership that combines multiple strategies and areas of marketing.

Came across this site, looks like it might solve my problem:

richgurus.com

Take a look, let me know if you agree…

Anyone know who is behind it?
Blatent spam, primarily because it was posted to a a Compare Sat Nav price update post, rather than a more relevant post, such as the one actually discussing ebooks!

The second spam message comes from "Jessie" who writes:

He pushed it a bit too far when he posted this one at the same time:
hi buddies,
enjoying a fab time these days coz i hv been showered with cashback cashback and cashback each n everytime i did shopping at a really special cashback website namely, ebuy2save.co.uk
can you believe guys, they are offering £10 for registration!!! its awesome! and for my insurance done from prudential, i got a cheque of £50 from ebuy2save! and to add to it, till date i've got £780 cashback. dear friends! i would strongly recommend you to try this website, at least for once. i assure you wont have to regret rather you will thank me for this. so move ahead n earn heavy cashback on all the products offering great discounts! When buying online, go for the latest offers promising your money back for your online shopping and save money! Enjoy cheap online shopping to save money with the best deals.
i wish u the best n a nice time ahead!
Nevertheless, the reason why I thought this was considerate is because it was posted to the post "White Label Cashback Site".

10 out of 10 for actually finding a post that is relevant. It's still spam and I won't be publishing it as a comment because the link will become active and that then gives credit to spam.

I did however publish Mike Shannon's comment, which is relevant short and sweet (albeit a little bit spammy). The reason I posted it is the link compliments the post, the comment is relevant and is concise. The two above are blatently spam due to either commenting on the wrong post or it is stuffed with keywords.

So now you know what I like, get posting and get credit for comments you post here!
