Spam is really alarming for any site. For this reason, Google Has taken many steps to eliminate spam from comments. There are many Blog already has deleted by Google only for spamming. In addition, zillions of website got a penalty for comment spam. There are many a good blog which isn't visible in search engine because of comment spam.

In the primary stage, Blogger thinks they are doing well by leaving their Blog link on other's blog but this is very bad for long term ranking. Because if a Blogger leaves their Blog hidden link on other's Blog comment section then comment readers may feel interested to visit that Blog. but Google treats this kind of link as spam. 

As a result, anytime they can get a Penalty from Google. And Google Blogger user can lose their Blog or get disable their AdSense account anytime without any prior notification.

Now WordPress use may think Google can't do anything but they aren't aware that their Blog position dropping on the search engine result page SERP. 

Generally, visitors click on the content link that appears on the first page of the search engine. but due to comment spam their WordPress user's content link may appear on the 10th page of the search link where visitors merely go there. That means your Blog will get a negative SEO rank.
