194.8.75.x on big blog spam run

By Brian Turner

Various IP’s in the C class (/24) IP block 194.8.75.214 are running like the clappers with blog spam today.

The blog spam is being posted in high volume, and the spam all links to pages on free webhosting accounts, advertising typical high-paying affiliate keyword links.

Unusually for this sort of activity, the IP addresses used are from a small range, and additionally, actually geolocated as in the UK.

The level of activity is remarkably aggressive, which suggests someone new to blog spamming who doesn’t realise that the high spam activity is likely to see their proxies and free hosting accounts closed down reasonably fast.

We’ll be happy to help that process on the way.
