Interestingly, this post just got hammered with 100 spam comments that were all caught by the spam filter without being published. (On the main article, not the forum post.)

If they're that pissed off, you're obviously hitting a nerve. Great Work.

Thanks for the work that has gone into both this alert and the up-to-the-minute updates on this scam... This sort of thing seems to be more frequent lately..., and we need to be aware of the various devices these ripoffs employ.

Amazing the crap crooks will try. Well maybe not ALL that amazing but it sure makes me appreciate our fine sponsors.

The above post with the link to the spam was from before we published our article. Look in the bottom right for the date on my computer. It was while I was in Kansas City for the show.
We are still getting blasted with spam comments. I just deleted 50 more.
Luckily, the spam filter is catching all of them so they don't get published and only I see them in the back end.

The pipe community needs your help. You may remember the two SCAM sites we reported on. They are back up. We need everyone to email complaints about both sites being fraudulent. Send emails to: english@hichina.com
