Has anyone else noticed a huge increase in spam, returned, undeliverable, etc emails in the past two days.. mostly in German or French?

And.. since mailwasher pro is not serverside.. I have to at the very least download all the headers. Annoying when it goes from 300 a day to 2000 or more.

JJSLIMM · 05-15-2005, 02:30 PM

E-mail users around the world got a rude awakening Thursday when a spammer flooded their inboxes with nationalist, borderline-racist propaganda in German.

The messages -- which appeared to blame immigrants, prisoners and welfare recipients for Germany's problems -- hit recipients in California, Finland, Germany and the Netherlands, according to initial reports on antispam mailing lists. Some recipients reported receiving just a few messages, while others reported being overwhelmed by thousands of pieces of the spam.

Most of what I'm getting is not outride emails, but return-types.. likely because my email addy is commonly used for spoofs when viruses are used that grab email addresses from cache for spoofing.

SomeCreep · 05-15-2005, 02:36 PM

I havent noticed any increase, just the same 100 mortgage spams and "Mr. Peterson has $235,899 waiting for you" spams I get everyday.

JJSLIMM · 05-15-2005, 02:36 PM

i am getting about 1500 to 2000 of those german emails every few hours.

Subject: Paranoider Deutschenmoerder kommt in Psychiatrie

Subject: Armenian Genocide Plagues Ankara 90 Years On

Subject: S.O.S. Kiez! Polizei schlaegt Alarm

Matt_WildCash · 05-15-2005, 04:41 PM

Lots of german spam 900 emails yesterday from there, usually i'm only getin 5-10 spams max

MicroChick · 05-15-2005, 04:51 PM

Not receiving foreign stuff, but getting a lot of billing notices, phony ebay and paypal, and ice cream spam. Filtering software captured too many legitimate messages. The problem I have is sending legitimate email and the receiving of real email from others that is rejected because the servers think it is drug related.

justsexxx · 05-15-2005, 04:52 PM

Yeah round 700 german spams how bad the jew are, about Turkish ppl etc etc.

pornguy · 05-15-2005, 04:56 PM
