It's just wrong in my opinion, and exacerbated by the fact that it was spammend to our abuse account. Their /24 just fell off of my piece of the internet. Have I just been blind to this all along, or are the spammers getting bolder?
Its called a joe job - spammers do it when they get spanked by an antispammer or someone else they don't like. Usually happens right after their service gets shut off, but they could do it for dozens of reasons. Hipcrime (aka dippy) loves doing this, and less then two months ago he went on a joe job spree spamming my home phone number and a dozen other people's. They are bold, and don't seem to fear anyone. You can keep killing them, and they don't learn. -- Brian Bruns The Summit Open Source Development Group Open Solutions For A Closed World / Anti-Spam Resources http://www.sosdg.org The AHBL - http://www.ahbl.org
