We haven’t blogged very much of late and for good reasons. We had a big move to complete and things in the background have kept us busy. However the following is an important tip for you to read.

Our friends at Security Garden have been running articles all month on Cyber Security Awareness. We make this a very Hot Tip and recommend you make yourself aware and read all articles.

As always you can discuss this also in our forum for a more open debate .

“A person well known to Spamhaus, Judy Devenow, one of long time spamming kingpin and convicted felon Alan Ralsky’s gang, plead guilty to conspiracy and aiding fraud in a US Federal court. She admitted she had sent millions of spam e-mails a day to generate excitement about junk stocks while working for Ralsky who has been indicted, accused of running the pump-and-dump spam scam.”

“Devenow said she was paid US$150,000 to send e-mail and manage others from January 2004 through September 2005. She, Ralsky and nine other people were charged in January 2008. Thomas Dukes, who specializes in computer crimes at the U.S. Justice Department in Washington DC, is quoted as saying that Ralsky sent tens of millions of e-mails over a 20-month period – and that’s a “conservative number,” Dukes told the judge. We agree; Spamhaus regularly sees spammers like Ralsky and his gang sending tens of millions of spam e-mails each day. They use innocent people’s virus infected PCs to do this and also forge the addresses of innocent people onto the spam’s “From:” line (”spoofing”) causing untold damage and costs.”
