That's spam. Example.tld is likely coming from Russia (i.e. the real domain is something.ru) - at least that's what I'm getting.
I've added some statements to my Apache <VirtualHost> sections to use mod_rewrite to send back a 403 (forbidden URL) message:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^title=.*http: [OR,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/index.php/.*http: [OR,NC] #... other forbidden stuff... RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com [F,L,R]
That seems to catch most of it.
