We received 2, and I heard from other operators that they had received it as well. This is the second or third "threat" in a matter of a couple of weeks. Seems like someone scraped some information from somewhere. ---------------------------------------- From: Travis Garrison <tgarrison@netviscom.com> Sent: 10/19/21 8:32 AM To: Matt Hoppes <mattlists@rivervalleyinternet.net> Cc: "Nanog@nanog.org" <Nanog@nanog.org> Subject: RE: Anyone else getting the 'spam' bomb threat?

I've now heard from several operators - our selves included - about getting an e-mail bomb threat to our datacenters asking for $5,000 USD or the "bomb will be detonated". Is this being seen on a wide spread e-mail blast to the RIR contacts, or am I just unlucky to know like 6 other data center folks who have also gotten this e-mail? It seems like a very odd/bizarre spam/threat campaign which would carry significant jail time.
