A bunch of sites in the IP range 77.78.239.0 - 77.78.240.255 look all evil and appear to be serving up bad PDFs and other nastiness. IPs are allocated to Maximus Hosting Services, Bosnia and honestly I cannot see a single domain that looks legitimate.. I would suggest that you block the entire range.

"Re: Intercepted Over Due Fund Transfer!!!" scam

This isn't the first time that we've seen a scam email pretending to be from the UN, but they are often slightly amusing in their pitch. The idea here is that the scammers are targeting people who have already been ripped off with the promise of compensation. Presumably the success rate with this approach makes it worth doing.

Unsurprisingly, the telephone number listed is in Nigeria. Avoid.

Nettms.net / Nettps.net "NetTemps Inc" scam

This fraudulent job offer solicits replies to an email address of cv@nettms.net  and it pretends to be from "NetTemps Inc". There is a legitimate firm in the US of a similar name, but this job offer is not from them.

Looking for a job? My name is Juliette Barnes, I am a recruiting manager of NetTemps Inc, a recruiting agency for direct-hire, contract, and freelance professionals within various professions.

It's the same scam as this one, but in this case the back-end servers are different.. the mailed replies go to 204.12.229.89 [Hosting Ventures LLC, US] with a web site hosted at 95.64.133.205 in Russia along with another similar domain of Nettps.net.

Anyway, this job offer is probably laundering stolen money or some other criminal activity and should be avoided at all costs.

Despite there being no company of this name in the UK, there are two probably related websites of deliverylci.com and lcidelivery.com. At the moment, only deliverylci.com is running, registered to a fake address in the US:

E-mail: lcidelivery@lcidelivery.com

Our Office:

5 NORTH STREET, HAILSHAM, EAST SUSSEX, BN27 1DQ, United Kingdom
5 North Street, Hailsham does exist and is the office of a firm of accountants, there are many companies registered at this address. The telephone number is a London one though, not one for Hailsham.

Digging further shows that the deliverylci.com website is hosted at  89.248.162.136 [Ecatel, Netherlands]. The following sites are hosted on the same server:

  • Dealcomltd.com
  • Deliverylci.com
  • Idealogisticservices.com
  • Todaylogisticservices.com
89.248.162.136 is also a nameserver for other domains:

  • ns1.taxreturnsworld.com
  • ns1.worldtaxreturns.com
  • ns2.itadvancedservices.com   
  • s1.oilhost.eu
The domain taxreturnsworld.com was recently mentioned by Brian Krebs as being part of a particularly sophisticated job scam. So, it seems likely that all these domains and so-called companies are bogus and should be avoided.

There's been an awful lot of badness from Latvia recently, with several fake AV apps and other Very Bad Things hosted in the range 91.188.59.0 - 91.188.59.255, which appears to be a wholly bad subnet of pure evil. It looks like a similar setup to Real Host Ltd which was shut down last year.

I have left school then has finished institute on a
trade of "economist". If it is interesting to you I will necessarily tell about it, but now not in it the purpose dear friend. Recently, I watched TV and saw, that in Russia there are 35000000
women who live without men, and there are such agencies of marriage which have many electronic addresses, and such agency can help to find for women the suitable man. I have gone to one of such agencies, and have addressed to them with inquiry that they have found for me the
good man. They have informed at once me, that in Russia I should search for the good and decent man very long time. Then they have offered me acquaintance to the man from other country, on what I have looked from a positive side. As I know, that at us in the country of the man, do not appreciate women, is possible because women several times more.

In general, I have agreed to strike up acquaintance to the man from other country, and they have given me your electronic address.

I do not wish to be the friend, it is not necessary, I am ready to serious relations. It is very necessary to love, give my love to the MAN and family creation. If you really wish to have serious relations with me
write to me. If you do not want to have a relationship with me, just do not respond to my letter, I can understand everything myself. And nevertheless, I wish to tell to you, that my photo is made not professionally, but you see me, such what I in a life. And you can precisely define such woman as I am necessary for you or not.
