Google Alerts as Spam?

This is a little off-topic, but I noticed that my Google Alerts search for “Alfresco Content Management” is now returning SPAM messages. It seems that spammers have now figured out a way to get fake posts stuffed with all types of keywords on Google Groups and other places get treated by Google as an “Alert” and get Google’s own infrastructure take care of delivering the message straight to users’ inboxes!

I applaud them for their ingenuity, but that doesn’t prevent me from wishing that all spammers, phishers and their ilk grow warts all over and be forced back to the depths of the abyss from which they came.
