how would this list help me spam?
Google your email address - then simply use a bot to gather ALL the email addresses listed in the posts along with it. ;) The sad fact is that the email addresses used to post to this list (and any others like it) are freely there for the taking. Plus, it's quite obvious they are active. (More obvious then, say, email addies fro 1996?) ;) -- Peace. ~G On Mon, 18 Oct 2004 11:02:00 -0500, Todd Towles <toddtowles () brookshires com> wrote:
Exactly as I stated eariler...this is just information leakage...old as it might be, it helps...the people on the list are just doing their jobs...getting paid and giving information to a employee that knows their name (and is higher in the company) seems harmless. Spam isn't the issue with this information leakage, I can buy a CD with 6 million e-mail address on it...how would this list help me spam?-----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com [mailto:full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com] On Behalf Of KF_lists Sent: Monday, October 18, 2004 9:06 AM To: Harry de Grote Cc: full-disclosure () lists netsys com Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] why o why did NASA do this. Forget about the spammers, how about social engineers. This is quite the gold mine for that. Hi this is Joe Schmoe from building 69 I need to have my password reset. -KFi have to admit... it's pretty old and useless, but i thinkthis maybe a nice place for spammers to try out some new adresses..._______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
