If you wish to send spam pretending to be the IRS, and tell me to clickthrough for the refund, don’t format the amount using European style notation, as Americans generally will wonder why the amount is “$123,45″ and not “$123.45″
As for other kinds of spam the free and wonderful Akismet has now blocked over 300,000 comment spams right here on Polizeros. Yes, 300,000.

Comments subject to deletion at whim of capricious webmaster. Disagreements are ok. Flames, trolls, and right-wing attacks are not. If your comment doesn't appear immediately, then moderation is on, thus there's no need to re-send it.
(However sometimes the anti-spam programs here go awry. Email us if your comments seem to vanish into the void.)
