So far, no one has ever spammed me, except a newbie who didn't know the rules and was quickly stopped by Survivorduck and me. I've seen others being spammed, though. It was horrible:

HEYHEYHEYHEY YA ALL DIS PROJECT SUX [removed] GO VISIT MAHN AT <link to project>!!!!!The Project Maker wrote:
Please stop spamming. Also, this is an animation, while yours is the Scratch Cat spinning repeatedly.
Spammer wrote:
YOU TROLL!!!!! IMA FLAG YOU [removed] SON OF A [removed] WHO CANT EVEN MAKE A SIMPLE ANIMATION PROPERLY YOU NOOOBBBBBBB!!!!!!!
The worst thing was, the spammer was a day old, and the project maker was over 2 years old. And the spammer was calling the project maker noob. Not to mention the animation was one of the best I've ever seen.
I would avoid getting called a noob and see the project, even if it was boring. I also would tell the spammer that I seen the project and loved it, and favorited it!
Don't encourage them!

I know, right?! Well, they would be (to me) if they did this to me... I don't get very many views on my projects. Ah, well! At least I found Scratch!

How I deal with it: When it's in this form:
Cool!
(link)
I just delete the link one and reply to the first:
I don't accept ads here. Try the Show&Tell fourm.
On one of my projects, someone tried it (name not disclosed ) and I did that.

I go "lol check out my proejct (link to project)" Or go "(link to project) look at this game! (NOT SPAM.)" It's annoying when they never actually bother to go through all of the stuff you described.
Spam is also an acronym for Super Poweful Awesome Messages, like posting "kldwkuqcoi" ten thousand and a half times on someone's project. But both kinds of spam are pretty awesome though.
P.S. Are you sure this is in the right section? It might be giving newbies the spam message.
Lol! QUOTE EDIT!

you should tell if there is a way to tell if it is spam.

Once, I was on a website with a chat box and normally there's not a lot of spam. But his time, about five people with spam names spammed super quickly like "fjosjfjui". It was Spam Central for ten minutes!

Monty Python of course!
Though I wouldn't expect anyone who isn't British to know that...
I'm an American in New Zealand, and I know that!
BTW, in this case does 'spam' stand for 'Showing Projects by Appropriate Means'?

This isn't particularily called Spam; it's more like being resourceful in a way that you get more views.

Its where you are programming in scratch and suddenly... BAMBOOMZLE! All the txt in your costumes, scripts- even the drop down menus at top- all disappear. You have to save and exit scratch, restart it, and to get th4e text back, go to EVERY SINGLE COSTUME that has any txt in it and edit it and the text reappears.
