Has anybody notices any new spam storms out there? Since yesterday, about 10 times the normal spam get's through (normally 2-3 messages a day, now it's like 2-3 messages per hour). Sniffer returns 0 (clean) for all of them, while they don't even get a high enough score with SpamAssasin (less than 4.0) to get tagged. |
There is an aggressive new image spam campaign that started about 30 hours ago. This one has a continuously variable message structure and is stuffed with "bible salad".
We've got a pretty good handle on it now, but the campaign is backed by significant bandwidth (our primary spam pre-filter is at 2x nominal throughput due primarily to this one campaign) and I'm sure there are a few mutations we're not capturing from time to time.
Is this the campaign you are seeing or are is it something else?
Thanks,
_M
