    Wrong country! The spam is written in Korean.

    Oh dear! The Koreans have invaded then! Batten down the hatches!

    Sadly, just because the spam was in Korean, it doesn't mean that the spammer or their bots are based there. The people who do this for hire are based all over the place, and do not necessarily have anything to do with any locale indicated by the content.

    Plus of course, spammers are insomniacs.

    I suppose - well they must be off causing mischief elsewhere then or MSE have succeeded in banning them!

    I'm a bit of a techno klutz so I don't get why they do it. Is it pure mischief? Can they make money from it?

    And I was wondering why they posted in Korean when they can see these boards are written in English? doh! Even if we were interested in what they had to say, how are we meant to understand it!?
