Amusing spam
I had a spam leak through today. The only thing in the html part was a link to some site, with no hint of what was there. The plain text side was more informative, in a way: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit You have 2 options here, Option 1 - You can put ANY text you want in here. Option 2 - We will fill it in with the text only portion of the html message if you put the macro for you: http://biglnk.com/DZp in here. NOTE: Some email clients don't disply html data. In that case what you put here will be seen by the recipient. If the email client does display html data then this will NOT be seen by the recipient. Based on this you may wish to put a text version of your add here; however, you can also put some macros here to make the message more random.

I'm not sure if this on was a legitimate spam or if it was a troll from someone that didn't like this company...

They look like a quite legitimate company, but a little sloppy (check out the registration for cyberservicesllc.com - which is them also). They appear to be around 3 years old (at least the slandered domain) and have another 8+ years left of the registration. Some of the clearly related domains look closer to 6 years old, An ugly Joe-Job (correctly termed - someone has targeted them for this); Best guess would be a spammer who got terminated by them - A typical disgruntled customer would not be able to access a compromised machine on a Thai dynamic IP (where your copy of the email came from).

Last night when I googled Rackco so little turned up about them I figured it might be a small test victim for a new blackmail scheme. {^_^}
