Re: Someone's scraping NANOG for phishing purposes again

This is the sort of mail, based on stolen address books from numerous sites and sometimes on mined Facebook data, that 
the same spam group has been sending since mid 2013. At some point in 2016 they started permuting the data; previously, 
if A's addressbook had been stolen, the mail always came "From:" A, but now if A's addressbook had B and C in it, the 
mail might be "From:" B to C. 
It is of course possible that they have new sources of data, although I haven't seen any particular evidence of that 
recently. (I have seen evidence that they have moderately increased competence in getting their spam delivered and 
read, which has been their main problem in recent years.) Addressbook data stays useful until all of your contacts get 
new email addresses.

payload is inside SecureServer.net's 43.255.154.0/24 - 43.255.154.125 and
43.255.154.66. Headers follow. Note: I think Anne P. Mitchell is a LinkedIn
contact of mine.
