It is also a dynamic IP address, so could just be someone playing. You get some of the most interesting spam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dra007 Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 Thanks Steven, I could do with less of this excitement. What struck me odd was the defiant tone of the e-mail.. as if the spammer was telling I know who you are.. I have been getting a lot of med/ sexual content spam lately with little notes like <we are here to stay> and the like, often soon after I report them I am deluged with little repeats of the same spam.. So I don't know what to read into this. Bottom line is that they maybe right, reporting may incovenience them, but does not stop them.. Question is, if they know I am reporting, why are they so persistant.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Question is, if they know I am reporting, why are they so persistant.. 34586[/snapback] Probably because they are bouncing off so many corrupted machines, "they" will never be caught. Those machines may be listed eventually but the actualy source avoids detection. Now, if we could only modify the viruses enough to provide headers on messages they transfer.... hmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
