Over the past couple days I've been getting poker spam comments. While I have old entries set to require moderation and use the captchas, I'm not sure how they get through in the first place.
The most recent spam came tonight via a single POST...no GETs of the content or captcha files, at least not from the same IP, and no blog GETs were made any time near the POST time.
Yes, this is common spam. You can set the spamblock configuration to default reject spam instead of flagging it as "moderate".

They are not curcumventing the captchas; just another antispam method kicks in before the captcas.
If any spam check (like duplicate contents) evaluautes true before captchas are checked, all other checks are skipped. In your case it seems duplicate contents or another check gets hit first. YOu can look in your spamblock logfile/table to see which check it is effectivley.
