Got a 419 scam spam with an IPv6 encapsulated IPv4 address that was not
detected correctly:

Received: from userPC ([::ffff:82.128.107.32])
 (AUTH: LOGIN [email protected], TLS: TLSv1/SSLv3,256bits,AES256-SHA)

"I believe that this is a new method to obfuscate an IPv4 address from
harvesters and DNSbl's by hiding it in a IPv4 over IPv6 tunnel address so that
it doesn't get processed." says a friend.

I might call this v4 obfuscation via v6.
