Porn Trackback Spam Overdrive

Our special porn trackback spammer "friends" have kicked their efforts up a notch, it seems. I got an advance warning from Mike that they were using a new IP address range and shortly thereafter, they started hitting Damn Spam! first and geeklog.net next. This is the biggest trackback spam run I've seen from them so far.

Currently, they're using both their old address range, 85.255.113.*, and the new one, 85.255.114.*. Most of the spam is for sites at ifrance.com. I've already sent a note to ifrance.com, but haven't gotten a reply and the sites I complained about are still online. So if you get this sort of spam (which contains pretty much every porn keyword you could possibly think of), let ifrance.com know that their service is being abused.

The other subdomain provider they're currently using is dynu.net, but interestingly enough, neither www.dynu.net nor dynu.net currently resolve (but all the spamvertized subdomains).

Hmm, currently they're spamming for subdomains used by several well-known subdomain providers: dnsalias.net (which is dyndns.com), dyndns.dk, and homelinux.net. At least the first two are good at shutting down spammers quickly. Are these guys getting desperate or are they just clueless?

Porn Trackback Spam Overdrive

Today's spam is mostly for abandoned message boards running wwwboard. Seeing that the last release of wwwboard seems to date from January 2000(!), I can guess how much protection it offers against spam and misuse in general ...

And 6 hours after the run for the Abandoned message boards, they're back spamming for sites at homeip.net and other dynamic DNS services. But from what I can see, they're all redirecting to a site at atspace.com that has been taken down already. Yet another case of They don't care.

They're back

Looks like my "friends" here are back. Make sure you still have those two IP ranges, 85.255.113.* and 85.255.114.*, blocked.

Here we go again ...

They're at it again: Trackback spam from the above IP addresses. Mostly porn, but also some URLs related to music and MP3s.

What boggles my mind is that the newly spamvertized URLs still redirect to that old and long-closed account at atspace.com. Can these guys really be that stupid? Or am I missing something here?
