Looks like some nefarious dudes or dudettes are using the edgeio classified ad sites to steal content and then trackback spam. So far two of my posts have been lifted and turned into classified listings. In each case a trackback was sent to the original post. It's unclear if this is widespread or just an isolated incident.
TechCrunch impresario Michael Arrington is an Edgeio co-founder and I am sure he will get to the bottom of this. Still, it shows that the spammers are getting more aggressive and are branching out beyond setting up spam blogs. Comment spam has been showing up lately in my Flickr account as well.
