noticed bounced emails that appear to have origionated from their
nanog email boxes and contain viruses?
Obviously some bot has gone threw the nanog list and is now forging
headers such that they appear to come from those addresses, and they
are attaching viruses.
The IP address (which may or may not be accurate) appears to be
[195.157.87.253].
Has anyone else noticed this recently?
Earlier today I received 2 bounce messages from AOL stating they were
not delivered due to a virus and originated from that very IP! So
you're not alone and/or imagining things.... thanks for mentioning its
harvesting source.
