This morning, I received spam inviting me to contribute a technical article for an alleged 'security' magazine named 'hakin9'. Ordinarily, I would have Just Hit Delete, but the following paragraph caught my attention.As you are interested and knowledgeable in IT security matters and you are a famous persona in IT security community we would be honoured if you wish to cooperate with us and to write some technical, IT security related articles for our magazine.Did anyone else on this list, particularly anyone who has recently posted to this list, receive the same spam?
Yep, got it and deleted it. -Conor -- Conor McGrath Phone: (773)702-7611 Manager for Network Security Fax: (773)834-8444 Network Security Center, The University of Chicago NetSec: (773)702-2378 PGP: http://security.uchicago.edu/centerinfo/pgpkeys.shtml
