Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Feature request: no displayable text in body

Fri, 05 Sep 2003 16:53:22 -0700

All of the text is in the image, and the image is linked. If that IMG tag came through to you, follow it and you will see what I am talking about. A variation on this is to primarily use the image and link for the content, and include some bogus text, typically random characters below the image in order to fool the filters (I'm not inquiring about that though).

Maybe you're not seeing everything that I sent to the list, in which case, let me reprint the body of the message and modify the links so I don't set off the filters:

        <html><body>
        <center><!--kpz4j815n29--><a href="http://www-dot-wholesale22-dot-com/host/default.asp?ID=omni";><img 
src="http://discountrate2-dot-com/pics/gv1.gif"; height="270" width="405"></a></center>
        </html></body>

This seems to be the wave of the future in spamming. There's a lot of spam coming in with no text, just other HTML, mainly to display an image and get by heuristics. Most of this stuff gets caught by the various lists, but I get a couple a day to addresses pointed at my own account that hardly fail a thing if anything at all.


I'm a bit confused:

This one won't display anything (aside from the subject) -- so how will it benefit the spammer?
