Some spam earlier on the receding gums thread. The spam recommended a US dental clinic. It got me thinking, I feel sure a human must have been responsible, which must have involved some intelligence, except they didn't check that we were US..

Unless they thought UK was a US state.

I don't doubt it.

Edit: Missed off the 'don't' earlier. Was reading about 'spam farms' the other day, where they have factories full of these poor, literally, people doing these links.

I doubt it.

I don't. But if you're paying some poor Chinese sod peanuts to spam sites, and paying by the site - I doubt he's going to bother to check if the site is English, Australian or American...

Jamie if you had read the spam you might know what I meant.

Yeah I guess I was deluding myself thinking the spammer would care if it was effective or not.

@Toys:

Sorry, I meant 'don't doubt'. Have edited accordingly with explanation. A ninja edit, didn't seem fair.
