Where the bad links come from

I was in a forum discussion earlier today and told a guy named Kelly about a bad experience I had with SpamCop. Some spammer was putting MY site URL in their spam (along with many others) to saturate the URLs they wanted in the content of their spam. SpamCop complained to my ISP and my site came down for 12 days while I sorted it out with tech support. Some of the bloggers were calling this shotgun reporting and a menace to the Internet. I agree. SpamCop should not trust URLs in the body of e-mails as always being spam. What! Are they just grabbing all the links and e-mail addresses they can outta the spam? How wrong is that! They should do a little homework.
