So it's not just us seeing a huge influx of Spam from Google lately ? And I'm not talking Google Cloud vm's IP space, but rather legitimate Google Workspace accounts, and tons of @gmail
besides the Docu-sign stuff there's an endless variety of 1-2 paragraph messages offering everything under the sun. To somewhat mirror what Jay has said, apparently these messages are properly filtered as Spam by Google towards their own customers, but they have no qualms in letting them leave their network for the rest of the world to deal with it. We have been slowly increasing our bias towards filtering Google IPs - blocking is still too much at this point.

This is not strictly true - I was at the AWS Summit in Zürich about one week ago and had the opportunity to talk to the person responsible for ISP contacts @ Cloudflare. Their Abuse Desk is located in the US and they are US minded: * We don't care what our customer does as long as he is paying and as long as no CP is involved. * As long as we are not being forced by authorities to shut down a customer, it is our duty to protect our customer’s services form DOS attacks - it's not up to us to assess if our customer is possibly operating a phishing site and claiming to be some other company, it's up to the authorities to contact us so victims have to file a complaint with the authorities. But this is not the mindset of the Cloudflare branch offices in Switzerland or Europe. They have a different mindset and very well see it as their responsibility to keep fraud out of their network. Recommendation of the Cloudflare Switzerland guy: In more serious cases, don't report them to the official abuse desk in the US. Try to report them with the local Cloudflare branch in the country which is targeted by the fraud, in cases you work for an ISP, ask for the person in your country offering protections services to ISP, this very well might lead to a swifter reaction by Cloudflare. -- Mit freundlichen Grüssen -Benoît Panizzon- @ HomeOffice und normal erreichbar -- I m p r o W a r e A G - Leiter Commerce Kunden ______________________________________________________ Zurlindenstrasse 29 Tel +41 61 826 93 00 CH-4133 Pratteln Fax +41 61 826 93 01 Schweiz Web http://www.imp.ch ______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list [email protected] https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
