Subject: SPAM: Increase in targeted spamsOne of our users received a spam today from genutrust .com, URL in spam CHICHIMECA .COM
This spam was VERY targeted. User's first and last name, complete address, and her phone number. She informed me her phone number was listed with initials of her and her husband, not her full name. So she has no idea where they got this info.
Let me Guess: she has reposed to 'friends' who want to keep up with her in their 'private' social network? Something like linkedin?
At least it will cost the spammer some cpu cycles, sending out each one, one at a time.
Bayesian, and 'section' checksums like for DCC and razor should help block some of this, even if they use the person's real name/phone number.
