 * I installed facebook comments for wordpress plugin properly – all works out just
   fine. But!…. I haven’t even published my new post and I already have 6 spam comments
   in post preview (dated August 12 – although I just created this post half an 
   hour ago and as mentioned – I haven’t even published it jet.
 * When I checked my other post – a lot of them have similar spam comments dated
   from 4 – 12 August.
 * I would even gladly deleted them without any complaints if I would know where–‘
   couse it seems like they are some kind of ghost comments – they do not appear
   in my wordpress comment list (protected by akismet), neither on Facebook comment
   list.
 * Please help. It is driving me nuts :0

 * I have exactly the same problem here. Rogue comments totally unrelated to my 
   website are turning up – all dated earlier in August before I installed this 
   plugin. Lots of them are in foreign characters also, they are all over my blog
   I have had to manually delete dozens of them. Then, when I did have two comments
   they totally disappeared after a few hours. I had to uninstall the plugin.
