RE: [SURBL-Discuss] German spam crap
by Smith, Eric 16 May '05

16 May '05

So I saw the rule, but will any of the links in most of the messages be added to SURBL? It's my understanding this is virus related coming sometimes from internal hosts infected with a new class of virus that will turn the infected PC into a spam host. We do filter internal mail for spam also so I thought I would check if the links in these messages will eventually make it to SURBL. /E. -----Original Message----- From: discuss-bounces(a)lists.surbl.org [mailto:discuss-bounces@lists.surbl.org] On Behalf Of Kevin A.

Also, you can lookup all those domains at rfc-ignorant.org for more comments. BTW. You suggestion is the fundamental difference between IP based BLs and RHS BLs - That is why there is a place in the world for both. Paul Shupak track(a)plectere.com P.S. There are a least a few hundred domains at those IPs - I think there's a partial list on one Spamhaus page (don't have the SBL at hand).

URIBL and PTR records
by wolfgang 12 May '05

12 May '05

when browsing unsubscribe links like http://www.signoffcorp.biz/uns.htm to enter a spamtrap address I just noticed that quite a few of the pages look extremely similar, DNS lookups show: $ host www.signoffcorp.biz www.signoffcorp.biz has address 217.107.217.8 $ host www.bestcds.biz www.bestcds.biz has address 217.107.217.8 $ host www.wonder-pills.com www.wonder-pills.com has address 217.107.217.8 $ host www.multimed.ws www.multimed.ws has address 217.107.217.8 $ host 217.107.217.8 8.217.107.217.in-addr.arpa is an alias for 8.0/27.217.107.217.in-addr.arpa. 8.0/27.217.107.217.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer webrider.ru. $ host webrider.ru webrider.ru has address 217.107.216.26 so i wonder if it is possible (or already done) to also list (and save) the IPs of URIBL listed domains and check newly queried, yet unlisted domains against those IPs. any comments? regards, wolfgang

Feedback on adprofile.net wanted

adprofile.net reportedly appeared in a flowers.com ham as: <td align="middle"><a href="http://tx.adprofile.net/tx/r?CID=12&M=3&sid=800ABC123"><IMG height=90 src="http://a1234.g.akamai.net/f/1233/1234/1a/www.1800flowers.com/800f_assets/im… me too120X90.gif" width="120" NOSEND="1" border="0"></a></td> Yet it's listed on WS by Bill Stearns. This may be a false positive. Does anyone have any more information about it? Catherine Hampton says it's not on her spam radar and others have said that they may be web spammers on guestbooks, wikis, etc. but not email spammers. They seem to have some minor NANAS. Feedback wanted. :-) Jeff C. -- Don't harm innocent bystanders.

I find adprofile.net within my corpus in 1) what appears to be a valid ham, angry (not quite hate) email to Mike Malloy, liberal radio talk show host, from a radical conservative listener. Email includes a copy of the 760thezone.com home page (the radio station that carries the talk show). Home page apparently contained the paid ad link: <A class=3Dportalbar=20 href=3D"http://wvw.clearchannel.com/spacer.gif?event=3D104~radio~20~~124~= Low Mortgage =Rates!~125~/hosts/index.html~121~kkzn-am~98~http://tx.adprofile.net/tx/r?= CID=3D60584&M=3D0&sid=3Dlmr"=20 target=3D_blank>Low Mortgage=20 target=3D_blank>Rates!</A> In addition to that one ham, I have 12 spam.

Chris, if your reading this, you should now have two more "grey" entries for URIBL; But these both seem like FPs for SURBL. Paul Shupak track(a)plectere.com P.S. This is probaly the wrond list, but for those using URIBL, what scores are you using (mine are pretty low)? Reply on the URIBL list if it seems more appropriate (likely it is).

Spam dispersed across multiple messages
by Matthew Wilson 11 May '05

11 May '05

Has anyone seen any spams that use two (or more) messages to catch the recipient's eye? E.g.: The first message has cutesy CSS-obfuscated text and maybe a graphic or two, and informs/commands the user to watch for the follow-up email from the same person and with a certain given catchphrase in the subject line The second followup message that arrives a minute or two later is perhaps marked with an identical From: name (but not an identical from address), and perhaps the prophesied catchphrase in the subject line. The payload (a URL or phone number or whatever), would be in the body or even subject line of the email message. Comments?
