I think it's because these guys are using software to post to thousands of sites at once. It would be quite a job to manually go check all of those sites. I read on Michael Dinowitz' blog recently that these guys often purchase a huge list of web forms that they can try to spam, and they just use software to do it. Often times they just go straight to the form's action page, which is why you want to have something in your form processor to make sure the submission actually came from your site. ---------- This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
