No, it's the other way around. Spammers are using blogspot as a front-end passthru to their scam sites. I used to get these garbage comments all the time until I put up word verification. They would say "Great post! By the way, if you're interested in cheap computers, check me out at http://garbage-crap.blogspot.com."
