wtf spam bot?

So my last entry linking to my [community profile] chocolateboxcomm gift is getting a ridiculous amount of anon (and thus screened) spam bot comments in Japanese. Just that entry. I dutifully deleted and reported 28 since I posted, but it's been getting really annoying, so I disabled all comments to it now. I honestly don't get how the targeting of these spam bots works.

ETA: And now the bots apparently switched to this one. If this continues I will have to disable anon comments. Already have turned on captcha for anon, but apparently that is useless.

ETA2: I had to disable anon comments, after getting another flood of spam comments. Sorry to potential anon commenters, but they seem fairly rare anyway.
