Hi there, Before i forget: Happy newyear to all of you It is actually possible that they are trying to harvest accounting information from persons who are not that smart by thinking this is bogus. It is also possible these persons want to ehm DoS ibtco.com persons since there will going to be people who will call the valid phonenumber. In my opinion one can best ignore the email and just pay attention about wherethe email might be originated from. Don't reply to it, and never ever call the number displayed. HTH, Regards, Remko Lodder Elvandar.org -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: full-disclosure-bounces () lists elvandar org [mailto:full-disclosure-bounces () lists elvandar org]Namens Meeusen, Charles D Verzonden: maandag 5 januari 2004 17:30 Aan: full-disclosure () lists netsys com Onderwerp: RE: [Full-Disclosure] [Fwd: Please contact me !!! 800 453 2287] Actually, I'm glad this was posted since I also received this (to my personal email address) and I've just spent the last 20 minutes or so investigating it. I usually just send my spam to trash and move on but this one caught my eye. If others got it, and can explain what's happening, I'd appreciate it. What I found: The email originated from c-24-126-245-82.we.client2.attbi.com [24.126.245.82] The phone number really is valid for a group called ibtco.com who I have no association with. Google search for "lidiya aliyeva" only returns these log segments: Jan 4 23:13:32 horsey testmail[11038]: i057DUSs011038: from=<lidiya.aliyeva () ibtco com>, size=2056, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<000701c3d34a$b5fd68b0$0101c80a@a>, proto=SMTP, daemon=testv4, relay=h62n2fls34o867.telia.com [217.208.39.62] Jan 4 23:13:34 horsey testmail[11060]: i057DXXC011053: to=lidiya.aliyeva () ibtco com, delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, pri=212631, relay=ibtco.com.mail5.psmtp.com. [12.158.35.251], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (Thanks) Jan 4 23:13:34 horsey testmail[11062]: i057DXKR011052: to=lidiya.aliyeva () ibtco com, delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, pri=212625, relay=ibtco.com.mail5.psmtp.com. [12.158.35.251], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (Thanks) Which can be seen in it's entirety here: http://test.smtp.org/log This isn't by any stretch an exhaustive inquiry, but I'd love to have someone who knows better than me tell me what's happening here. Why would email that, from all outward appearances seem to be spam, be sent with a valid phone number of a (seemingly) valid company but via (seemingly) nefarious means(seemingly) be trying to get banking info from me?
