KNERD Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Reasoning: It currently is going to postmaster[at]wayfair.com, the offender itself, The company has registered their own IP addresses with ARIN. Per ARIN Web site ( , abuses such as spam need to go to: postmaster[at]arin.net I am currently getting unsolicited/unconfirmed commercial spam from them on a daily basis now.

KNERD Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 I see the reporting address has been changed to arin-notice[at]wayfair.com. What is the significance of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 arin-notice@wayfair.com is the contact address shown in the WHOIS records (see https://whois.arin.net/rest/nets;q=162.208.32.165?showDetails=true&showARIN=false&showNonArinTopLevelNet=false&ext=netref2), which will be why that's being used as the reporting address. If wayfair.com are the spammer themselves, then this isn't a case of SpamCop not finding the correct reporting address (i.e. a routing issue), it's a case of reports needing to be DevNulled. ARIN are an address registry - they and the other Regional Internet Registries (ARIN covers North America, RIPE for Europe & Middle East, APNIC for Asia/Pacific, LACNIC for Latin America & Caribbean, & AFRINIC for Africa) ensure that IP address assignments are globally unique, but don't control what people do with the IP addresses that have been assigned by them.

KNERD Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 I am aware what ARIN does, but if they are using it to abuse email, then I think they would have the authority to revoke those addresses. And instead of DevNull why not just send to spam[at]uce.gov? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
