Re: LF: Re: Coil problem....Spam alert!

Hi yes Eddie, well spotted .....note also messages actually "reflected" by the real s/w have an LF: in the subject line even if no subject is posted, so these were messages posted direct to the group address list, which is not generally available,as individual mails. There is a command for it but it is only available to the administrator.

 

Sadly the majordomo software is a bit ancient now and our version has not been updated for many years so someone may have found a vulnarability to get at the memers list.

 

Plus point...... genuine distribution is still clean !!. look for the "LF"

 

Best Wishes for Christmas

Hi Alan

I was going to post a warning I had one today, quite convincing and a current topic too "Re: LF: SAQ Testing" with a suspicious link "qrss doc. It went to a wrong e-mail account for this group.

Hi Jeff and all members. Someone is forging the address of the group. I dont think they are distributed to the group through the reflector (from my scan of the header data) .....just to individual members. So we cannot delete it, and anyway there is no admin access.

 

So....

Be cautious of incorrectly addresses mails .....it should have the senders name. Also beware of messages with a blank subject line.....a common occurance with spam

 

I received one with what looks like a message with a title ot subject quoted inside the message from several years ago. I am guessing they have farmed one of the archives......and not very well.

 

Do not access the URL under any circumstances, for someone to bother doing all this can only be a pointer to nasty contents.

 

Otherwise a Happy Christmas to all
