SPAM List

Posted In General - By Geoserv On Thursday, January 21st, 2010 With 149 Comments

What’s the biggest annoyance with running a Pligg install? Dealing with SPAM. This is unique to Pligg, but because of the type of site that Pligg enables you to run, SPAMMERS love to abuse it.

Most SPAM is submitted via a script, therefore, making it super easy for SPAMMERS to riddle every Pligg install they find with their garbage. If you are like me, I spend about 3 hours a day removing SPAM from FAQPAL, that’s time I would rather spend doing almost anything else.

I have compiled a list of 1787 domain names that have been blacklisted for SPAM.

Many new Pligg owners aren’t aware that Pligg has a feature built in where you can have the script check the domain being domain to see if it has been blacklisted, if it has been, the submitter won’t be able to complete the submission.

All Pligg site should be using this feature.

To enable:

Admin – Configure – Anti-spam – Enable spam checking (set this to true)

The file that lists all sites you blacklist is located in the root folder of your Pligg install and is called local-antispam.txt.

To add a site to the list, you can manually open the file and add the URL or you can have it added by clicking the ban link in the story admin panel.

To get you started, here is the list of sites I have compiled.

    My blog gets about 3 readers a day from what I can tell (and I'm not sure it doesn't also include me in that figure) and so I always keep a close eye on any comments. So far spam comments have matched real comments on about a 1-to-1 ratio which is kind of annoying.

    When spammers spam your site, they generally use a series of open proxies or bots. Open proxy is a public relay server on the Internet. Bots are computers that have been taken over by spammers. Very rarely do spammers use their own IP's for spamming. If they did, it world be easy to shutdown their operation.

    This approach is very new to addressing link spam. One of the shortcomings of link spam filters is that most sites receive only one link from each domain which is running a spam campaign.

    Everyday I get about 10 phone calls linked to spam. (Publishing Clearing House sweepstakes, a recording looking for some guy named Carlos, free stimulus check and how to fix my credit…) Anyway, I'm tired of it and I don't want to get my number changed because I have so many contacts.
    Is there a specific number to call to get my number removed from that spam list?
    Thanks…

    How i found out is that they used my email and used my password to get to it and change it. Then i had an old account thati never used and i logged into that. I started then, without knowing, sending out spam Comments on myspace to my friends list.

    This one is totally fraud actions, no company is able to take a range of IP's and put it on a black list for no reason. You should not stand and stare and do something about it. I will send compliant too immediately.
