salfordian Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 (edited) Over the past few weeks from absolutely no where I've started getting loads of spam from this network, all the spammers seem to be flocking to them because they don't take any action, has anyone else noticed this? https://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z6542922397z3c2945f480a7ca56b47a7cb777329cd4z https://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z6542923446z72655f6a75f2ec753507b5061bf1ac8cz These guys are catching up to the OCN network (Repost due to abuse/trolls) Edited May 2, 2019 by salfordian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also post US sourced phishing spam to phishing-report[]ATus-cert[DOT]gov just raises action from yahoo to actually act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisati Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I recall being mildly surprised recently to see some reference to Oath when reporting a spam, I was half expecting it to go to the usual Yahoo reporting address. o I don't have a link to hand but think I saw something a few months back about Yahoo now being part of Oath.

Hey Petzl & Lisati, Yahoo acc 15 years, it's been good for us, never had one spam, not before the "Oath" change & not since, seamless🤫, have to shush that comment, don't wanna jinx them & start getting a flood. 74.6.130.122 - HOSTNAME: sonic316-12dotconsmrdotmaildotbf2dotyahoodotcom DOMAIN: yahoo.com Organization: Yahoo! AS 26101 (Yahoo!) NETWORK OWNER(ISP): Oath Holdings Reading the reference article "Oath was renamed Verizon Media 08/01/2019" Looks like their changes have been many & not complete, no surprise, that's "business" in a "Global" world.

salfordian Posted May 3, 2019 Author Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) I'd say they've surpassed OCN now which takes some doing https://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z6543263574z8e083366c136b64ad3169755c05b0b6bz I know they use the Yahoo back end Edited May 3, 2019 by salfordian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petzl Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 (edited) 13 hours ago, petzl said: not about receiving spam it is yahoo sending spam Yes, Yahoo (now Oath Holdings Inc ) are free throwaway accounts, as well as in September 2016, Yahoo revealed a hack that compromised 500 million user accounts. In December, the company revealed yet another hack, this time affecting a record 1 billion accounts. On Tuesday, Yahoo updated that number to all 3 billion accounts its services. Seems most (maybe near everyone) have not changed their Yahoo passwords?
