Shocking. But at least you've got spam-pirates taking the time to identify your blog enough to be a relevant annoyance and liberty taker. We tend to get surreal one liners like... 'Really proud of what you've achieved. Good luck in the future' And then underneath a link to a loan company based in the far east. This happened with a recipe for slow roast pork. I mean did they think we wouldn't notice? Really.

Hello I have seen that someone has used some of our product info without our say so to have a go at Cloud Nine Irons this was not us. We want our product to stand on its own not by having a go at others.
Please do not think this was in any way.

I appreciate your expertise on all
things of beauty and general wellbeing. Thank you for pointing
out the fact that these people must be desperate to advertise.
I love your blog since discovering it recently, all others pail into insignificance. Keep going you are a joy to read and take advice from.

I hit the "reject" button straight when I see those comments. They probably think beauty lover = stupid? Have to admire their persistence though, it must have taken sometime to trawl the net like that, or perhaps their trawling software isn't that good. :D

God I find that so cheeky and as a blogger myself I ge there too. I wish they'd get themselves a proper marketing method and stop spamming our content. lol.

Ah, spammers, not the most sophisticated souls. I do like to follow the way they target a post though - I once got a makeup tattooing place link comment on a post that had the phrases "semi-matte" "part of the permanent line" and "make up" in it - of course, they'd searched for "semi-permanent make up" and then not actually read the post. Or maybe they did read it, didn't care, and thought they'd plug anyway.

PS: It's amazing how it's always someone else who does these things, and never the company itself - it's the internet equivalent of "A big boy did it and ran away...."
