By the way, thanks for all the nice comments off list how valuable these
brief updates are, and changes to what we are seeing in the wild..
This one is a little more brief, but if anyone needs more details on a
specific type of attack we are seeing, hit me up offlist..
Tales from the Trenches..
It's been both interesting, as well as boring in the sense that we see a
lot of the same old, same old this week.
* Gmail originated obvious spammer levels still far too high.
* Zoho Campaigns relaying through new cloud systems
eg.. ip125.234.189.103.in-addr.arpa.unknwn.cloudhost.asia
* Large OVH Outbreak across several network segments
* Contabo Spammer/Phisher activity very high, wide spread
* IXPO and Serverion actors still up to bad stuff and not just spam
* Beginning of the week snowshow spammer surge again..
Same actors, across the same suspect hosting companies, they get
blocked real fast, poisoning networks
* Amazon, Google, Azure cloud threats continue to increase
* Mailgun sending 'gesty' spam and threats, harvested addresses
* Constant Contact sending phishing activity
* Fortimail relaying Serverion spammers
* StrikeIron spammer once again on Microsoft IP Space
The worst part is that almost every one of the above problems can be
solved quite quickly and easily.

PS, don't know what o365 is doing, but a marked reduction in uncaught
spam leaking from their networks..
