Samples of spam received, part 3

This page lists, for the perusal of the public, some of the spam (bulk junk email, unsolicited commercial email, etc.) received here. Spammers steal other people's resources for their advertising, so please don't do business with them. This is page 3; page 1 is here, page 2 is here, page 4 is here, and page 5 is here.

• Spam claiming to be from syc@amss.ac.cn, with alternate email syc@amss.ac.cn, trying to persuade me to submit papers to the journal Acta Mathematica Sinica. Needless to say, I won't let them publish anything I write, I won't referee anything for them, and I will avoid referring to papers published there. I have also asked my library to cancel its subscription to this journal.
• Spam claiming to be from specialoffers@partnerinfo.broderbund.com, advertising software from Broderbund and Riverdeep Interactive Learning Limited. The spammed email address was used to send email to exactly one email address, support@broderbund.com, asking about exactly one subject: the existence of a particular program (having no connection with anything advertised in the spam) for Apple System 10. The spam claims, "We sent you this email because you asked for updates about new products and promotions." This is a lie. I will buy my software from someone else.
• The Copy Shop still keeps spamming me. This one claims to be from Erica595@aol.com, and refers to the email address thecopyshop@qwest.net. The spam message is bloated with an encoded .jpg file. Here is another one, this time claiming to be from the new address Ericae730@aol.com, and referring to the old email address thecopyshop@qwest.net.
• Spam from a list that someone signed me up to without my permission, claiming to be from icaa-owner@kendy.up.ac.za, and also containing the email addresses icaa@kendy.up.ac.za and sympa@kendy.up.ac.za.
• Spam claiming to be from rolling200308@yahoo.com, and also containing the email addresses missinaibi@ureach.com and northernlight@SoftHome.net, promising me a "100% Legal, 100% Ethical, and 100% Guaranteed" way to get a "New, Separate, Clean Credit File". The message was sent "with an unregistered copy of HotCast Mass E-Mailer." I presume their procedure is no more ethical than their advertising methods. Call 877-832-7860 (number from the spam) to complain.
• Two spams a week apart, Spam 1 claiming to be from Andrea05@academickeys.com and also containing the email address unsubscribe05@academickeys.com, and Spam 2 claiming to be from Andrea01@AcademicKeys.com, from someone who thinks I would trust a spammer for academic employment information. Perhaps the addresses Andrea02@academickeys.com, Andrea03@academickeys.com, Andrea04@academickeys.com, unsubscribe01@academickeys.com, etc. also all exist (to confuse system administrators wanting to block spam?). The web site contains the email addresses ContactUs@AcademicKeys.com and WebMaster@AcademicKeys.com. I complained about the first spam via SpamCop, which sent my complaint to abuse@snet.net, but that apparently didn't do any good.
• Spam claiming to be from surgicalhunksmi@nsc.ijs.si, with so much html encoding as to be illegible in a normal email program.
• Spam claiming to be from angela.grant@weekonline.com, apparently advertising a digital camera but illegible in a normal email program.
• Spam claiming to be from info@isict.org, and also containing the email addresses workshops@isict.org and submissions@isict.org. It advertises a conference with no connection with anything I have ever done, and whose organizers are apparently so desperate for attendance that they flood the internet with bulk emailed ads for it. Its web site also has the address webmaster@isict.org.
• Spam claiming to be from info@wisict.org, and also containing the email addresses remove@wisict.org, workshops@isict.org (perhaps a misprint for workshops@wisict.org). Like the previous spam on the list, it advertises a conference with no connection with anything I have ever done, and whose organizers are apparently so desperate for attendance that they flood the internet with bulk emailed ads for it. It even seems to be essentially the same people (or else one spammer plagiarized from the other). Its web site also has the address webmaster@wisict.org.
• Spam, claiming to be from statistics@hicstatistics.org, and spam, claiming to be from hic-statistics-list@tapacom.net, and also containing the email address statistics@hicstatistics.org and Statistics@hicstatistics.org, advertising another conference with no connection with anything I have ever done, and whose organizers are also apparently so desperate for attendance that they flood the internet with bulk emailed ads for it.
• Here is a spam claiming to be from statistics@hicstatistics.org, advertising another conference (a successor to a previously spamvertised conference) with no connection with anything I have ever done, and whose organizers are also apparently so desperate for attendance that they flood the internet with bulk emailed ads for it.
• Repeated spams: spam, spam, spam, claiming to be from textbookreusers@worldlogon.com, spam, claiming to be from Bookbuy@quik.com, spam, spam, claiming to be from textbuy@sysmatrix.net, advertising the visit of someone who wants to buy my unneeded textbooks. They all claim to be on behalf of Jay Wise, who, one might guess, has to keep changing his email address to deflect complaints from the people he has spammed. I will take my business elsewhere. Here is another one, claiming to be from textbookreusers@textbook-buyers.com, yet another one, claiming to be from bookbuyer@textbookreusers.com, yet another one, claiming to be from bookbuyer@textbookreusers.com, and yet another one, claiming to be from bookbuyer@textbookreusers.com.
• An encoded spam claiming to be from CustomPrintGoods@netscape.net. Decoding it yielded an html file containing the further email addresses CUST0MIMAGE@netscape.net and DoNotContactUs@excite.com.
• Four abusive emails: no. 1, no. 2, no. 3, no. 4, all apparently from the same source, sizikov2000@mail.ru. All are large (typically over 100K) and encoded; decoding them gives incomprehensible binary files.
• Spam, claiming to be from tfrahm@atipa.com. The spamvertised web site also contains the addresses webmaster@atipatechnologies.com and sales@atipa.com. Sam Spade revealed this information about the spamvertised site, including the contact address qiwu@microtechcomp.com, and revealed this information about the domain of one of the contact addresses at the spamvertised site, including the contact address qiwu@microtechcomp.com.
• Spam claiming to be from alert@imrn.hindawi.com, and implying I have been added without my consent to their mailing list. The spam also contains the email address majordomo@hindawi.de. Email addresses found on their web site: webmaster@hindawi.com, hindawi@hindawi.com, jobs@hindawi.com, consortia@hindawi.com, orders@hindawi.com, claims@hindawi.com, alert@imrn.hindawi.com, sara@jam.hindawi.com.
• Spam claiming to be from jeanandre@ifrance.com, advertising a web site for, among other things, the "Smarandache Notions Journal", whose subjects include "physics hypothesis that there is no speed barrier in the universe, neutrosophy as a new branch of philosophy, neutrosophic logic, neutrosophic set, neutrosophic probability and statistics". Poking arond on the web site links turned up the email addresses florenta@oltenia.ro and M_L_Perez@yahoo.com. Some additional web searching suggests that Florentine Smarandache, the apparent owner of the spamvertized website, has the email address smarand@unm.edu.
• Spam claiming to be from touax@freemail.org.mk, also containing the email addresses touax@emf2.com, and info@workspaceplus.com. The last one is apparently the real email address. This one thinks I am foolish enough to buy a building from a spammer. Call him at 800-330-6451 (found on his web page) to tell him what you think of spam.
• Encoded spam claiming to be from Alderson@yahoo.com. A lot of good this spam did: I was unable to decode it.
• Spam claiming to be from bluestelldy@att.net, also containing the email address test@petzetakis-africa.co.za, advertising some presumably worthless drug.
• Encoded spam claiming to be from ur@yahoo.com. The decoded version proves to be an ad for a well known health scam.
• Spam claiming to be from bedebtfree2004@yahoo.com, also containing the email address ncorp@slavecamp.nwo, and claiming to be able to show how to cheat all the people you owe money to.
• Spam claiming to be from ysafidxbpuyxcl0p@health.com, also containing the email address axevuhrcu0I@health.com, advertising presumably illegal sales of prescription drugs.
• Spam claiming to be from ertu37000l6@yahoo.com, and claiming to be able to show "Make a Killing on eBay".
• Spam claiming to be from 303kaosfl@fabulousomars.us, who thinks I am so foolish that I would get a home mortgage from a spammer.
• Spam claiming to be from mansol.bbb-0@laposte.net, also containing the email address fredrickkins@myself.com, and claiming I have won an imaginary lottery. I don't know what the scam behind it is; maybe a variant of the African money transfer scam?
• Spam claiming to be from iluk_winninglottery@uk2.net, also containing the email address cgareth2@inter-ccltd.com, and claiming I have won an different probably imaginary lottery. In this case, the sender's ISP's spam detection software even thinks it is a Nigerian money transfer scam. Too bad the ISP didn't simply junk the message instead of polluting the internet with it.
• Spam claiming to be from mandaw1280912@yahoo.com, containing a common medical fraud.
• Spam claiming to be from 69yipj@fantasticvinnies.us, who also thinks I am so foolish that I would get a home mortgage from a spammer.
• Spam claiming to be from eagyblnwm@pillreserve.com, advertising presumably illegal sales of prescription drugs.
• Spam claiming to be from pgrabowskidom@interia.pl, with a long text in a language I can't read.
• Spam claiming to be from Amanda.Bridges@weekonline.com, and so full of html coding as to be unreadable in a normal email program.
• Ten spams: Spam 1 claiming to be from chanjskan@chinggis.com, Spam 2 claiming to be from chanjskan@chinggis.com, Spam 3 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 4 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 5 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 6 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 7 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 8 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 9 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, Spam 10 claiming to be from freevideo@freemail.hu, all advertising something consisting of what looks like links to Windows executable files.
