Well the plain text stock spam has just taken a turn to 
more interesting and SNF is not capturing it yet as of 10:55 EST. I have 
submitted a couple to spam@

Now they are including part of a picture to make up the 
text. Here is what the source looks like

Will it ever stop :(

Probably not. Actually maybe I shouldn't be wishing that SPAM stops
because then I would lose a revenue streamhmm conundrum

RE: Re[2]: [sniffer] Stock SPAM now HTML

2006-02-02 Thread Goran Jovanovic
This is going to get harder and harder to identify and fight. Is it
worthwhile to put something like this in a new category which we are
very confident about and so if it fails on the new combined image/text
thing we can delete it outright?

Not sure if this is a good idea or not but I had to add extra static
filters to pop the older text only stock spam above my delete weight.
This combined image/text is going to make it tougher I think.

Thoughts?

 There are some new mutations of the latest campaigns out today. These
 ones look like they were hand tweaked (not evolved by machine). They
 are a lot tougher, but I think we've got some abstracts coming out
 that will get them.
 
 This new trend - using embedded images, adding static to images to
 avoid hashing systems, stuffing text, and avoiding links and email
 addresses is going to increase.

Right now we're fighting these things with compound abstracts... They
are the hardest rules to code properly so I'd feel uncomfortable
giving them an elevated weight.
