Like, how?

Right, I haven't had a grammar whinge in ages, so let's remedy that:
When did people start saying 'how it looks like,' as in, 'Let me show you how it looks like'?
This is so nonsensical that I can hardly bear it. Look:
'Let me show you how it looks.' YES!
'Let me show you what it looks like.' YES!
'Let me show you how it looks like.' NO! A thousand times, NO!!
MORONS!
