Spam with no links, no URL?

Something strange is going on. My spam traffic is up and yes, it appears to be manual. I put up the “type the magic number” routine so all the usual mechanized crap is going away. These new spammers appear to be going through the motions – read the post, post the comment – with no URL, no links, nothing but a usually crass comment like “why you do this?” or something similar. Not the usual HacKeR case stuff either, just bad English.

Methinks they are looking for a hack against the image? I don’t know – curious if anyone else is seeing this. Mostly Middle Eastern IP’s like Bahrain.
