Anybody else noticed a significant uptick in these e-mails?

When I first saw this thread, I hadn't seen any. A couple days later,
I got my first one. (yay!) Now I'm getting 2-3 a day. (yay?)

Yes.  It's pretty annoying.  And somebody seems to be burning through
a lot of stolen credentials.  I wonder what the success rate is...

    I am getting several a day as well as ugly MS Word based trojan.

    They come to me from all over the world with the subject line:

    "NANOG Payment Remittance Advice"

    I agree with Niels, someone or some spamming outfit is burning

    through quite a bit of stolen credentials.
