We started getting a flood of autobot spam to our listed abuse mailbox about an hour ago out of Teleglobe. Trying to find someone to shut this down has found that
1. Teleglobe has no listed abuse contacts for any of their netblocks 2. The few of their records which have listed e-mail addresses all bounce 3. All listed phone numbers on any netblocks we can find are invalid
Any chance that RIPE is more strigent than ARIN and would pull their netblocks until they fix this stuff?
It's possible that in the shuffle of company renaming/rebranding/rejiggering-of-people they lost this bit in the shuffle. There's at least one TATA eng person on-list though who may be able to get you a status on the situation.
while this is not me you were refering to, i contacted privately Jo on this matter - a customer, probably upset, decided to fire-up a batch of misguided spam reports while there is certainly outdated abuse info for some of our blocks, in this particular case the subnet that was allocated to us has up-to-date mail+phone info and thanks to some posters further up the thread: the abuse mailbox is indeed cabuse@tatacommunications.com
