Re: Spam from "baosteel"

Common phishing scam; we see them all the time, nearly always from
accounts which have been compromised by others who respond to the same
scam.

Is anyone else getting spam similar to this:
I started getting this (albeit in English) a month or two ago, and it
went away about the same time I turned on the CBL/XBL filters on
postfix.  It appears it's back again.
Note, I have absolutely zero connection with "baosteel.com" before
these started showing up.
