“Ze Foreign Accent” spam returns

Remember the Spammer’s Compendium (where I have a spam method named after me: (UH!Mustaca!HTML))?

There is an entry from 2003 called “Ze Foreign Accent“.

Back then it was rather primitive, but now it comes in a much improved (if we can say that) form:

spam-chars

 

spam-chars2

The link on “Click here” goes to a Google Drive hosted site which was erased in the meanwhile.

Fortunately, GMail detects it as spam as you can see in the picture.
