Hey, if you see a spam domain with false/inaccurate data, you can also do a "whois data problem report."

So the next time you see a spam domain with whois info that says "Faux Nom" you can go to http://wdprs.internic.net/ and report that domain. They'll have to correct the whois information, or at least change it.

You're concentrating more on blog spam, but it's a good tip to know about spam domains with fake whois in general.

Best wishes,
Matt Cutts
