I think blocking or filtering for the URL seen in this comment could save some spam comments, because its very often used.

For the first time this is a spam report from Opera Extensions Catalog -so hope My Opera moderators hand over it to the Extensions catalog management team - or just ban the user.

http://my.opera.com/nopgdos/about/

Since there is no definite review URL for extension reviews, I cannot link to the review.
But what you can do is check out the top most (at the time of writing) review for this extension - https://addons.opera.com/en/addons/extensions/details/newgenbook-20-beta/

It's a long spam review linking to fake shopping website.

Too bad my mod rights don't apply on that site. I was able to ban the user, but someone else will have to remove the spam comment(s).

Send a PM to Haavard to forward this to the Extensions Catalog management team at Opera - I could do that myself but Haavard knows you better. Thanks for banning the user though.

The spam comment/review is now removed. smile Many thanks to the person who removed it.

Well, the second time a spam report from Opera Extensions Catalog. The user has already been banned so just contact the Extensions Team to remove the spam review.

Quite unfortunately, there is no specific URL for extension reviews. So please look at the 2nd review (from the top) (at the time of writing) for this extension-

https://addons.opera.com/en/addons/extensions/details/youtube-webm-plus/

The username of the spammer is njkghuf8fjs.

Sorry to disturb just before the new year.
But this time I am confused. This person which I am going to report - despite joining this month has a blog with several valid posts.
But at the same time there is one comment on the Opera Desktop team blog which I think is something like the "clever" comment spam.

In the above comment, it can be seen that the comment is not only off-topic but also contains a link to a shopping website.

Now it's upto the moderators to decide - flag the comment as off-topic and give a warning OR ban the account.

What is it with these idiots?They are probably getting paid almost nothing an hour to operate a small hand set in the back of a car park somewhere sleazy and can only afford to post 1 photograph from said carpark@anywhere. con?

You'd think the scam master would have a little more sense.
