First spammer caught with my spambot script

Received my first spam to the absoblogginlutely.net domain today which isn't bad going as I've had it a couple of months. They got the address by crawling my spambot page for email address's on the 26 July and sent the email on the 26th.

As usual its the $45.5million to be transferred to me - this time from a .cz email address from the ip address 81.199.84.81, Browser agent they used was the DTS Agent.
Interesting thing is that my weblogs only show one address (the root page) from that one ip address. The ip address's that are used to get my spambot page are completely different. Weird. Anyway I'm off to bed and can't be bothered to worry about it tonight.

Interestingly the same IP address appeared on http://www.spywareinfo.com/harvest_project/spambots.txt . Dumb spammers.

who scan the web gleaning addresses to add to their lists,
do it like this:
