The cypherpunks list received yet another copy of the "Nigerian Corrupt Official's Bank Account" scam spam. No surprise, though lne.com's filters usually block them. The interesting thing was that this claims to be sent by the CDR Anonymizer <cpunks_anon@einstein.ssz.com>
This is the first time I've seen spam using an anonymizer - any guesses whether the spammer understands how to use it, or whether they just harvested the address from one of Choate's web pages? I'm assuming it's probably the latter.
I think so. There were a couple spams to the regular cpunks list at the same time containing the same content. It's not the first spam I've seen to cpunks_anon@einstein.ssz.com. Hey Jim, could you at least not make it a mailto: so it's not quite so easy to harvest? (note, I'm assuming that it's a mailto, I can't get to ssz.com to check). Eric
