Getting a lot of spam recently with text like this:

(I know advertising this stuff is not new, but we've just started getting
the spam.)
I've been using this rule for a while:
body PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS
/(?:(?:advert|public)i[sz]e|promote|increase|grow|expand|boost)\s+.{0,15}\b(?:(?:web)?site|business|offer(?:ing)?|(?:down|power)line|exposure)/i
describe PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS Wants to help promote your business
score PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS 3.0
The score of 3.0 is not entirely arbitrary -- it was chosen to be high
enough to push any of the false-negatives I'd seen at the time, into the
positives. However, the search engine promotion quoted above was still a
false negative (matched only DEAR_SOMEBODY at -0.5 plus the rule above).
Does anybody already have a "submit to search engine" rule they'd like to
share?
Oh:
test PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS ok publicize your website
test PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS ok grow your business
test PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS ok Increase your Business Sales!
test PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS ok Fwd:Promote any business
test PROMOTE_YOUR_BUSINESS ok boost your Internet exposure
Sorry, no "fail" tests at the moment ...
