LJ spam bots?

anyine heard of this yet? About spam bots taking over LJs, deleting them and leaving a post that links to a malware site? This is the LJ I first heard about it on:
http://community.livejournal.com/drwhodarkfic/17320.html

And a link to one of the members who has been keeping track/running info
http://upstart-crow.livejournal.com/346623.html

I've not been following communities over there, so this is the first I have heard of it. Is squeaky safe?

It's been going on for a while now. There are posts on this comm with information.

In the sense that I think IJ is a blip on the Russian blogging scene compared to LJ, I think it's fairly safe for now. But there are of course no guarantees - the bot-makers may realize the LJ clones are an untapped market.
