OK so what to do if their upstream does nothing? Like PBI
There are many other ways to track a spammer. - Do nslookup on the IP that originated the spam (sometimes this takes a bit of detective work to find what IP actually originated the spam). - Traceroute to the originating IP. Email the ISP that is directly
upstream.
*I* know these techniques. Joe User who's irritated at his spam likely does not.- Look in the Whois information for contact emails and nameservers - if these are for the upstream ISP, or some ISP other than the spammer, report it to them.But there's the rub. A great deal of the information (including delegations) in domain registrations by net.abusers is complete fabrication. InterNIC refuses to deal with it, even when it's pointed out to them.- If they are advertising a web page, track the web page host, and their upstream, and report it to them.All the time :>What do spammers and nails have in common? They're both intended for hammering.Amen.Witnesses available at www.witness.com...:) What do spammers and nails have in common? They're both intended for hammering.
