That post is gone I see ...
if you constructed a Automoderator
Wheeled the words that were important to the topic and replies (words, synonyms, antonyms) , further disregarding stop-words (this part gets tricky), you may be able to eliminate these auto spam bots.
If you archived all these doofus bot posts (that are just nonsensical) you could probably match some negative words matched against their overall frequency of usage (in this board's posts).
In the English language about 2,000 words are used --700~ words are commonly used.
But the 'collateral damage (false positives)' might be prohibitive. These posts look to me like they were written by a spam disguise tool designed for email use --then re-purposed for board posts --we are not seeing the URL they are trying to post --that will error out on new signups.
