I have recently been getting emails purportedly from iPhone, Royal Mail, Sainsbury, Morrisons, Shark Tank etc... etc....
I followed the usual reporting route through SpamCop and since I reported the first one, I have been inundated with this junk. Not just one or two a day, but up to 15 per day which, as you can imagine can take a long time to report each time when you only flash up Outlook Express once a day..
The last one I reported today is https://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z6704562724z6e01746bb5c7f801fcc9b8665297c7eaz
Reporting to abuse@microsoft.com or report_spam@hotmail.com, where it originates, seems obviously not to work but just to multiply the amount of spam that returns. All the spam has a common thread in the "reply to" field which contains in various different forms deutsche.xyz with or without extra characters. All of them have in common, https://optimized-by.rubiconproject.com plus the rest of an address. Is there a way of stopping this amount of spam or do we keep reporting through SpamCop?
