New email scam
Discussion
Just recieved this one, can anyone in their right mind (or even their left one) fall for these?
And yes it was from a Mr Vacumm R. Dingy.
They always get sent to Jack@mydomian.... even though my name isn't Jack, I haven't set up an email in the name of Jack. I do however get forwarded all emails sent to my domain. So at least it's easy to spot these jokers.
All Links given in the email are different, the last in the email gives a return link to golyells.com which easily.co.uk give all the registra details, contact details and such as quite nicely. Does anyone know if I can report this anywhere?

Normally an email to abuse@domain should do the trick. i.e. abuse@easily.co.uk, or look up Easily's home page for abuse contact details.
Even if you report them they just set-up shop elsewhere and continue.
We used to get about three emails a day from the same spammer - Just play 'em at their own game.
I used their address as a dumping address for undeliverable mail off our server. I then set up a dummy domain and auto mailed from that domain, i.e a@dummy.net, b@dummy.net, I think they got about 10,000 undeliverables in an hour.
Never heard from them again and this method clogs their inbox and stops innocent people getting scammed for a while. Until they set-up a new account.

No, I used Easily just to check the URL registrant details I don't want to sent them an abuse email. In this case their host is myvaluehost.com so I guess an abuse email to them.
