“January 1 TCP/IP” scam

When you visit today, there is a new doodle:

When you click the link, it queries ““, which links to a Digg story about today being the 25th birthday of TCP/IP.

The funny thing is, under this story is a flurry of Adsense scams.

As soon as the doodle went up, people created content related to that search query. The scammers are using every SEO trick they can to get high Google rankings.

The page listed above even has an SEOey URL: http://january-1-tcp-ip-123.blogspot.com. I wonder how much money these people will make from this scam today?
