I'm pretty sure it does have to do with ScrapeBox though. Either the new results don't allow for mass-harvesting anymore, or Google did something to block mass-harvesting to begin with. Besides, if your sites were on many lists, it's quite likely they got weeded out by now, since the comments aren't auto-approve.

I use akismet but I still go through some of the comments to edit and approve before I trash them

No but I noticed an increase in pingbacks using scripts to grab our blog images, use our alt tags (word for word) and not having links to our program on their posts.

Whoever is writing these scripts needs a severe ass-reaming.

I use akismet but I've also trained my gmail to block them, so I rarely see them.
