phishing URI
by wolfgang 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

postbank-deutschland.com this is a phishing URL that tries to fool postbank.de bank account owners to enter PIN and TAN data. I just submitted it to black.uribl and ws.surbl via webform too, the faster it's listed, the better ... cheers, wolfgang

I'm not sure how large, but their presence in Europe seems to be almost on the order of a "Earthlink" or certainly larger than "Lycos" mail or other second tier providers - I liken them to RoadRunner, large with more customers than they can support well, and overly slow to act (but they do act). It does seem that abuse is more common for 1and1 than the European domains (1und1.tld, oneandone.tld seems mostly corporate and large customers - I haven't seen more than a very few cases of "questionable" emails from oneandone - but a lot of forgeries). I simply suspect that whitelisting them might be like whitelisting any particular address from Yahoo! - not something I would trust without a statement that they check and/or reserve that address for their own use only (i.e. no customer could use it). Also, note that the most common form of abuse I have seen is the use of "dropboxes" at 1&1, not mailings from their network (just like for Yahoo!). They definitely do respond to complaints, but more slowly than I would like, and often there seems to be a language barrier (which is rare among the large multi-nationals which I have dealt with). Possible someone from Germany has further opinions and/or data to be shared. (Please, please - somebody from Germany speak up.) I would not put them in with t-dialin.net/t-online.de, who I would call "grey" - i.e. most customers are average people, but they make no attempt to act upon complaints (and are abused constantly - almost daily even for a small site like mine).

They are all the same company and forward responses to abuse@ and to postmaster@ queries through the same server (the problem is that *some* customer email also seems to go through that server occasionally, and they have had abusive customers in the past - so a forgery seems possible, even if unlikely).

Oh, that's really simple: the copy in the message thinks URLs are words, not functional strings that should be bracketed or otherwise kept apart from punctuation. I was merely remarking that a message ostensibly sent via postsnet also involved campaigner.com and gomarketing, all of whom have been on SURBL's radar lately. We've been trying to decide whether the fact that "some" legitimate email refers to campaigner.com means that we ought to whitelist it and let the rest of the spam through. > >>Note that they explicitly say "we bought the list" below.

I was extremely sorry to see that someone from whom I have learned so much over the years would stoop to purchasing address lists in order to spam people. Have you not been paying attention to the growing spam problem? Here we reject 65-90% of /all inbound mail delivery attempts/ as spam, and it's getting worse. And mainstream companies who spam (or who hire mainsleaze spam companies to spam for them) aren't helping matters at /all/. > >>My question is simple: > >> > >>Why did you subscribe me to this list without my permission?

If we simply bought the list, though, > there's probably nothing we can do to delete you from the list. If you own the list, I'd be very interested to hear how my address ended up on it. You *do* maintain a log of all subscription requests, of course, and can tell me when I subscribed, when I confirmed my subscription (via an email sent to my address to confirm that the person who subbed my address was actually /me/), from what IP address, on what day and what time, etc, right? If not, you're essentially looking to get yourself blacklisted. And not just by SURBL or one of the other blacklists, but by a million private blacklists around the world, who are a harder lot to scrub. If you simply bought the list, you may want to familiarize yourself and your marketing team with basic netiquette and guidelines for responsible (as opposed to merely "legal") email marketing. It's 2005 - anyone purchasing so-called "opt-in" lists in this day and age is begging to get blacklisted and have their reputation tarnished. I realize that if you purchased the list you probably can't get me removed from the original - I've come to expect my address to be traded. Frankly, I'm astounded to see someone as apparently net-savvy as you just accepting the idea of purchasing mailing lists. I'm very, very disappointed.

spam from Cricket Liu via postsnet/campaigner (FW: Webinar: Active Directory Best Practices for DNS)
by Steven Champeon 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

FYI - there's been some question about postsnet and campaigner lately on the SURBL whitelist list. Well, I was just subscribed to a postsnet list, managed by campaigner. If you go to the URL to unsub, including the final '.', you get a silly Javascript popup saying "Your work has been saved to date however your session has timed out and you must re-login", hit ok, get redirected to gotmarketing.com thence to campaigner.com. Note that they explicitly say "we bought the list" below. I'm surprised to see Cricket Liu spamming. Guess I'll never buy another edition of _DNS and BIND_. I've Cc:'d Cricket as well as Tim O'Reilly, the publisher for Cricket's book(s). My question is simple: Why did you subscribe me to this list without my permission? If you feel that you have permission from me to subscribe me to this list, may I ask where you think you got it? Is ORA cognizant/accepting of such stupid and/or risky practices by their authors?

In other words, pick a domain like mybl.domain.tld where you control domain.tld *or* if you don't control a domain of your own, then choose an invalid tld (e.g. "xyz" or "localdomain") and use a name like "bl.xyz" for your blacklist's domain. 2) Don't add it to "25_uribl.cf" where it will be overwritten by any upgrade; Instead put it in your local.cf (it will function the same way). Finally some advice that might help: Make sure that both you are using the DNS server you have configured the new domain on, and check that it is actually serving the new domain (e.g. "dig new_domain any @my_dns_server" and assuming *nix, that "my_dns_server" is the first listed in resolv.conf). It is probably more likely that you have an error in your zone file or name server config files than in the snippet of SA config above. Good luck, Paul Shupak track(a)plectere.com
