Please stop editing spam.
This was an edict from On High: Chris tries out automated spam detection systems from time to time, and if you edit messages then subsequent spam reports get attached to the edited version which contains no spammy material - this confuses the detectors and makes them useless.

Editing a question also resets its "Spam" count, which makes it last longer, and can mean that your account gets identified as the spammer if people aren't paying attention!

Just report it via the Red Flag (if you can see it) and / or post links in the Spam and Abuse forum:
http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1652005/Spam-and-Abuse-Watch.aspx[^]
And one the Protectors or Staff will delete it.
