A QA answer needs voting also.

I saw it, but it doesn't appear to contain any spam. I suspect that's just a "tester" to see if posting works.
I'm reluctant to bring attention to it in case it gets spam voted off and causes false positives.

No, I have no idea where the URL leads ... that rabbit hole can remain unplumbed.

Joined today to reply to a question from 2014 with a complete mess that seems to contain multiple websites in a single string.
When the spammers are so stupid they can't even form a coherent URL for their spam payload...

Joined today to reply to a question from 2010 with a link to an IP address.
Loading the link in Fiddler returns a page with a Chinese title which translates to:

@jeron1: Please don't edit solutions to remove the spam payload; just report the solution and user as spam.
NB: The solution needs kicking again now, because the edit reopened it.

When an item is closed as "spam", it's fed to the automated spam detector to learn from. If it's closed without the spam content, what gets fed isn't spam and that causes false positives. The system doesn't get to learn from anything until it's closed, so it's helpful if the original rubbish is untouched.

It won't rollback to a "contaminated" version because it's too short - so I've deleted it so as not to add false positives to the spam detector.
It was already marked as "Closed by OriginalGriff" so the original IP should have gone into the heuristics.
