Anybody else experience a surge in PDF spam? - GoFuckYourself.com

As most networks' spam filters begin to weed out img spam, it looks like PDF spam is on the upsurge. Anyone else feeling this?

jonesonyou · 07-28-2007, 07:21 PM

In my buiz mail box, None Stop.

Tommy The Twink · 07-28-2007, 07:21 PM

Jace · 07-28-2007, 07:24 PM

Red Ezra · 07-28-2007, 07:35 PM

At least with PDF spam, even if you get tricked by the Markov-derived subject line, you don't get a whiff of the spam cuz that crap is an attachment. LOL

BlackCrayon · 07-28-2007, 07:41 PM

I wonder what the open rate is for the pdfs. They have actual links in them?

Jace · 07-28-2007, 07:49 PM

aidantrent · 07-28-2007, 08:31 PM

Yeah, I was getting tons for a couple of days until I retrained my filter. Now they go straight to /dev/null

spunkmaster · 07-28-2007, 08:31 PM

It's a penny stock scam

Mr.Right - Banned For Life · 07-28-2007, 08:33 PM

i am getting lots of it.

p1mpdogg · 07-28-2007, 08:42 PM

im getting a ton of it, im sure ive deleted an invoice or 2 becuase of it. if i dont know the name i delete it. sucks

$5 submissions · 07-28-2007, 08:45 PM

They seem to be relying less on Markov random subject lines but using BUSINESS-related subject lines like "Your invoice" or "Here's the presentation" or some other bullshit.

Spunky · 07-28-2007, 08:46 PM

I must get 50 a day at least

Rochard · 07-28-2007, 09:10 PM

Yeah, I'm getting them too. Annoying as fuck. Fucking spammers.

Jim_Gunn · 07-28-2007, 11:13 PM

I'm getting a lot too, sometimes dozens every day.

Daruma · 07-28-2007, 11:20 PM

this thread is comforting in a weird way..

bobby666 · 07-28-2007, 11:34 PM

i get about a dozen of pdf spammails /day

rowan · 07-29-2007, 12:25 AM

So PDF spam is an email with an attached PDF? Haven't seen any of those yet, although I get relatively little spam... most of it arrives to an alias I used to sign up to a paysite.

baddog · 07-29-2007, 12:27 AM

I have been getting tons for months. You guys are just now getting hit with them?

I would bet the idea is that the pdf contains an exploit for older versions of adobe reader.... hope your adobe reader is up to date :-/
