 There's a specific scenario that will cause spam caught by Akismet to be
 displayed in the site activity stream:

 1. There are users in the system without an email address
 2. Email is not required for comments, and so spambots will send email-
 less spam comments

 The comments will be displayed in the activity stream as assigned to the
 first user in the db without an email address.

 If that user is deleted, subsequent spam comments will be assigned to the
 next user in the db without an email address.
