Heads up, a local spam operation... Has anyone else been receiving spam from "email-prom.net" [12.42.24.22] lately? The usual crap about how X million addressesee will buy stuff... In this latest case the phone and fax numbers given are in Ponsonby/Grey Lynn and Orewa/Silverdale/Whangaparaoa areas respectively. A quick scan on call-minder for 09-3608038 reveals a mailbox labelled "Deco Marketing Solutions" (no information for the fax number 09-4268337). The previous message used a mailbox in North America, so I don't expect they actually live here, but on the off chance that they do, does anyone know anything about these guys? Normally I'd just firewall the IP, but if there's a chance of nailing someone local I'll give them enough rope to hang themselves... And any suggestions as to what we should do with these two phone numbers? -Martin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Received: from email-prom.net ([12.42.24.23]) by smtp.sig.net.nz (8.9.3/NZSFI-20000705) with SMTP id VAA01285 for <martin(a)kurahaupo.gen.nz>; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 21:01:37 +1300 X-Authentication-Warning: mae.sub.net.nz: Host [12.42.24.23] claimed to be email-prom.net Subject: FWD: Last Biz To Business Disc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8BIT X-Mailer: QI03122001MDNZ Message-Id: <gcbinx81s4pg0grx.142o5n3n(a)email-prom.net> Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2001 03:06:31 +0000 Reply-To: md2000nz(a)email-prom.net To: md2000nz(a)email-prom.net You can now access contact data for over 8.5 Million Records.
