Hello, Your site is great.

    Spammers can be so strange sometimes.

    I received an email through a form on one of my websites, and I got to be mildly flattered for a little while.


    Hello, Your site is great. Regards, Valintino Guxxi


    Then I decided to try and see if I could follow up on this random compliment by googling the name. Turns out, it's actually spam

    Which, other than being a little disappointing, is also confusing. No advertising, no link to a website, what exactly can be gained from this type of spam?

    I mod 2 phpBB's as well and I get a lot of suspicious people signing up from random places across the globe (which is odd because these are regional sites) but they don't actually post or link to anything. What is the purpose of this?

    Just curious to any thoughts you guys may have.
