<h1> spam
I have been getting a bunch of comment spam lately that does not include any URLs. There is an email address and a name associated with the comment; the text is wrapped in a first level heading tag and reads like an introduction to a gaggle of spam URLs.
How useful is this? Is a spammer testing the waters? A new spammer who forgot to add in the spam URL?

4 Love Notes
there could be two things at work. The more complicated is that the spammer is trying out a new SEO tactic where he's embedding urls on the page in order to fool the spider.
The other, more likely possiblity is that the spammer is an idiot who just downloaded the script and is trying to figure out how to use them.
There are absolutely zero URLs in the comments. And one would think that after two weeks of shooting blanks (as it were) the new spammer would get their act together.
Where have all the quality spammers gone?!
This started happening to me last week. Who knows what they're up to.
