i have one of these and one that starts "1Sochi" , this type of spam will discourage new users and work as FUD for those trying to overstate the TM issue. it isn't 'bad' technically, but from a PR angle, it is bad

I'm sure if it becomes a problem it'll be dealt with somehow. Does anyone know how many people they've actually spammed?

We figured that this is the issue, and for those two transactions to have the same weird 1 Satoshi in them might be all circumstantial and there could be nothing more into it. We hope at least... Our system has been ignoring those transaction with invalid hashes and processing the valid ones accordingly.
Our system has exactly the same problem, 1 satoshi spam automatically causing double spending attempts for larger deposits. Can't quite figure out what's there to play with, but it sure doesn't smell good.

Doesn't bitcoin have spam dust fee like litecoin to prevent this type of spam on the network?

I don't think the transactions will ever get confirmed will they?

Doesn't matter, they still burden the network.

I agree, it's not a matter of burdening the network. It's a pure spammy advertising which they're sending no transaction fee with. So technically, 1 BTC can send 100,000,000 transactions to different addresses. Let 1% of these check the link, you've got 1,000,000 visitors. Which $700 ad campaign can generate such traffic?

Smart, but not ethical.

1% do not check the link.  Maybe 10 people do.  None of them will buy anything.

Makes you wonder if this is the results that Mt.Gox was referring to as a glitch that forced them to take their servers down. As large as they are it would take a considerable amount of time to weed through all the broken transactions and prepare to complete the legitimate ones that had been interfered with. As well as putting up a defense to this kind of attack.

I got one today also but for only one wallet. It seems that if your payment address is out in the open you will receive this. My main wallet was not affected. I have a side wallet that takes in payments and one that stores. The one that stores did not get one.

It seems to me that the problem is not with the bitcoin client, but rather the "tag address" feature at blockchain. If the tag is deleted wouldn't that remove the incentive to do this?

Is someone able to explain why these will not be confirmed? I agree they are annoying, but what makes them invalid?
