[TheForge] Monique DAVALAN e.i. Craigslist SPAM

[jim poulmas]

So I started researching this spam thing and I wanted to post to let you
know about the latest craigslist spam outbreak that's beem going around. The
problem with this spam is that it doesn't have a strange headline when it
comes into your inbox, only the recipients. So what happens is that you post
"anvil for sale" on craigslist and then you get an email in your inbox that
reads "re: anvil for sale." Unfortunately it seems that craigslist is losing
this battle. There is now software that criminals use to auto reply on the
site, get around the 'captcha' mechanism and then send you an email which
looks legit. Then you open and it emails every single person in your address
book. Annoying. there's more info on this here.
