Fake jobs: jobbslists.com, jobbsearcher.com, gbjobb.com and greecejobb.com

Yet more fake job offers, following on from this long-running scam. This time the following domains are in use to solicit replies:

jobbslists.com
jobbsearcher.com
gbjobb.com
greecejobb.com

The spam emails adveritising these may appear to come from your own email account (here's why). The "jobs" on offer are actually illegal activities such as money laundering.

For the record, the registrant details for those domains (which are almost definitely fake) are:

Some malware sites to block

These sites and IPs seem to be distributing some sort of Zeus variant. In this case users are being enticed to download a file called Fattura.zip (Italian for "invoice") which then contains an executable with the name Fattura.Doc_________________________________________________________________.exe (there are 65 underscores in the filename). That seems daft until you realise that all those underscores are designed to hide the .exe extension by making the filename so big that it is truncated.

At the moment, the malware (MD5 09886612d542e1b354aeda6a16f9ccf5)  is poorly detected (4/43 at VirusTotal). ThreatExpert's prognosis is here.

The back end is a big more interesting and gives a large number of IPs and domains to block if you want to be proactive about stopping this sort of thing.

The back end servers are primarly:
41.189.229.65 (Djibouti Telecom)
60.19.30.131 (China Unicom)
60.19.30.135 (China Unicom)
67.40.211.116 (Qwest Communications, Seattle)
71.217.16.11 (Qwest Communications, Seattle)
82.210.157.9 (Aster, Poland)
113.161.87.176 (VietNam Post and Telecom Corporation)
195.214.238.241 (Interphone, Ukraine)
202.199.160.107 (Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, China)
218.24.113.3 (China Unicom)

Scam sites on 84.22.161.169

84.22.161.169 (IOMART Ltd, UK) seems to have some problems with scam sites, such as the one mentioned in this post. I haven't had time to check the whole range, but most of the sites they host are legitimate, these however appear to be bogus.

The Register blunders, hands itself into the ICO

Oops.

From: The Register marketing@theregister.co.uk
Date: 24 October 2011 18:28
Subject: Apologies from The Register
       
Hello,

This morning the name and email address you used to register for The
Register was mistakenly sent to 3,521 individuals, also readers of
The Register.

We've contacted them asking them to delete the email and respect your
privacy.

We are of course terribly sorry for this error and have reported
ourselves to the ICO. Our initial statement is here:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/10/24/email_blunder/

You are free to edit or delete your account details here:

http://account.theregister.co.uk/register/

If you have any questions or would just like to rant at us please
send emails to mailto:data@theregister.co.uk


Best Regards
The Register

There's a couple of interesting things here - one is that The Register did the decent thing and reported the breach, it will be interesting to see the ICO's reaction when they ignore more serious breaches all the time. The second one is that the email address I used to err register is unique to The Register. Will I start getting spam as a result of it being sent out to 3521 people, or would it require more.

Anyway, Kudos to The Register for coming clean. You can read more about it here.

mailukrsoft.com: job scammers in action

A post over at woozoo.nl caught my eye (in Nederlands, Google Translated to English) about the netherlandjobb.com scam. Robert Krom goes several steps further than I usually do with a good investigation into how the scammers try to rope people in.

Robert identifies mailukrsoft.com  as the next stage in the scam. To me, it looks like it is run by a different crew, but scammers tend to oursource activities to others these days. It appears that one group of scammers may be looking for money mules and then selling them on to others.

Fake jobs: jobbworld.com and yourjobb.com

Two new domains being used to recruit for fake jobs, which actually turn out to be illegal activities such as money laundering.

jobbworld.com
yourjobb.com

This is part of a long-running scam that has been going on for ages. One characteristic of the spam received is that it appears to come from your own email address (here's why).

If you have any examples of spam using these domains for reply addresses, please consider sharing them in the Comments.

"Scan from a Hewlett-Packard Officejet 745065" and 94.23.116.30

These fake "Scan from a Hewlett-Packard Officejet" emails have been around for a little while now. Here's a slightly new verson:

From: hp@victimdomain.com
Date: 11 October 2011 23:41

Something evil on 66.197.235.245 (Exp/20100840-B)

There is currently a poorly detected (VirusTotal reports 1/43) Java exploit being distributed by 66.197.235.245 via injection attacks. One example is injected obfuscated code pointing to tualette.ce.ms/content/field.jar but there are probably lots of these. Currently only Sophos detects this as Exp/20100840-B.

Blocking all traffic to 66.197.235.245 is the quickest way to protect against this particular attack, it might be worth blocking 66.197.235.240/28 as in case this is a bad block.

The domains on 66.197.235.245 are a mix of crappy free domains, hijacked GoDaddy domains and a few others. I have identified the following sites, although I suspect there are many more:

abra.ce.ms
arenda3213.ce.ms
billyfuns.net
cherrychat.ru
e-casher.ru
fastresource.in
footporntube.com
gavni.usa.cc
goldmail.in

Cyanogenmod.com compromised with warlikedisobey.org injection

Cyanogenmod.com is a site offering legitmate custom firmware for Android devices. It's a popular site, pulling in about 100,000 unique US users per day according to compete.com and it has an Alexa rank of 6728.

Unfortunately, the site has been compromised in an injection attack with a hard-to-diagnose piece of malware attempting to load code from warlikedisobey.org/coehegzxw8xgahtrb on 66.197.158.102. The code seems resistant to several common analysis tools. The injection attack is hidden on the very first line of HTML on the home page.. you have to scroll a long way right to see it.

Update 12/10: it looks like the site is currently clean, but it might get re-infected if the core problem hasn't been fixed.

Update 20/10:  it turns out that it isn't clean at all, but the exploit code is not present all the time. It could be that something is going on at Cloudflare who provide load balancing for the site, but I've never seen that sort of issue with Cloudflare before.

I haven't been able to analyse the payload yet. There is a possibility that it might target Android devices.

The domain is registered through Bizcn.com in China to the following registrant:

Registrant ID:orgff14354361081
Registrant Name:Henry Nguyen Gong
Registrant Organization:Privacy-Protect.cn
Registrant Street1:Rue la produit 34

Registrant FAX:+33.466583875

Registrant Email:contact@privacy-protect.cn

privacy-protect.cn is very commonly used by criminals to cover their tracks.A Google search for 66.197.158.102 indicates that the IP address is in use by several malicious domains (listed below).

A look at the Cyanogenmod.com forums indicates that similar attacks have been happening since September 25th:

Does anyone know what this is? I got a warning from Norton with High severity saying I was attacked by sloughsputter.org and warlikedisobey.org from 66.197.158.102:80 when I entered into the touchpad forum for this website. The IPS alert name is: web attack malicious exploit kit website at High risk 

Blocking traffic to 66.197.158.102 is probably a good idea. It looks like there may be other problems in 66.197.158.0/24 so you could block the whole range as a precaution.

Fake jobs: new-jobaccess.com and simple-jobneed.com

Two new fake job domains, forming part of the long-running "Lapatasker" scam.

new-jobaccess.com
simple-jobneed.com

Emails from these domains may appear to be from your own email address (here's why). They are registered to a no-doubt fake registrant:

Luc Metteran
    Email: lucmetteran@yahoo.fr
    Organization: Luc Metteran
    Address: 6, avenue Kennedy
    City: Paris
    State: Paris
    ZIP: 17880
    Country: FR
    Phone: +33.0156402315 

The "jobs" on offer are illegal activities such as money laundering. If you have any examples of spam using these domains to solicit replies, please consider sharing them in the Comments. Thanks!

Some TDL/TDSS rootkit sites to block

The following IPs are related to the TDL/TDSS rootkit. 212.36.9.52 / gic-kbmtu0zkvwylf.com appears to be a C&C server.

94.63.149.10
94.63.149.11
94.63.149.12
94.63.149.13
94.63.149.14
94.63.149.15
146.185.250.140
146.185.250.141
195.3.145.251
195.3.145.252
195.3.145.253
212.36.9.52

94.63.149.0/24 is a Romanian host called Eurolan Solutions SRL, I've had this blocked for months with no ill-effects. 146.185.0.0/16 is Petersburg Internet Network Ltd in Russia, the whole /16 is sparsely populated and blocking that would probably do no harm. 195.3.144.0/22 is Latvia host RN Data SIA, given that Latvia hosts are such a sewer then blocking the /22 is probably also a good idea.

As for 212.36.9.52 (OTEL, Bulgaria), there appear to be a few malware servers in 212.36.8.0/23 mixed with several legitimate sites. 212.36.9.60, 212.36.9.52 and 212.36.9.52 also appear to be malicious. Blocking 212.36.0.48/28 should filter out the bad sites without blocking good ones.

The following domains are associated with these IPs, if you can't block by IP then blocking these might be a good idea,

Something evil on 91.220.35.38

91.220.35.38 contains several malicious domains, apparently connected with the Blackhole Exploit Kit. These sites are being promoted through spam email. The IP range of 91.220.35.0/24 (zamanhost.ru who appear to operate out of the Ukraine) looks like a good thing to block.

The email looks something like this:

Scam: "Conference on racism/human trafficking and child abuse 2011"

This fake conference is actually likely to be a form of advanced fee fraud:

From: Ms Regina Linus reginafedrick@yahoo.com
Reply-To: regina.linus200@globomail.com
Date: 5 October 2011 19:53
Subject: Conference on racism/human trafficking and child abuse 2011,,,,,,,,,,
   
Dear Colleagues,

You are cordially invited to participate in a Global Combined conference taking
place from (22ND-25th November 2011) in Atlanta-Georgia, United States of
America at the Hilton Atlanta Conference Center, and from (28th-30th
November2011) in Olympic Stadium Hall Dakar Senegal.

Applicant that are interested and want to represent his/her country should
Contact the conference secretariat via Email :{ csecretaryoffice@aol.com }
{giyf.newoffice@globomail.com } for more details and Information.

Endeavor to inform them that you were invited to participate by (Ms. Regina
Linus). Note that the Organizing Committee is responsible for the air
tickets, visas and lodging accommodation in USA only.

Sincerely Yours,
Ms. Regina Linus.
(regina.linus200@globomail.com)

Of course, there will be "problems" with the Senegal leg which will require a fee payment in advance, and the Atlanta part of the conference will never materialise. If you actually are involved in stopping racism, human trafficking and child abuse then consider just what scumbags these scammers are.

Mail is routed via 41.207.177.16 in Togo from an ADSL subscriber in Dakar (Senegal). Two sample originating IPs are 41.82.79.108 and 41.82.64.163.


Avoid.

NA3PA (na3pa.org) Scam: NAPPPA reborn

NOTE: You can find out who was operating NAPPPA here.

Earlier this year, I came across a fake seminar outfit called the North American Program Planning and Policy Academy (NAPPPA) [read the comments for more information] running out of a rented mailbox in Los Angeles. NAPPPA was recently covered by ABC15 in Arizona (see video below).

It seems to be a bait-and-switch operation. Seminars are promoted as being held at universities, only to switch venues at the last moment, students complain the the seminars are of very low quality and there are complaints as well that people who have been employed to teach these seminars (often hired via Craigslist) are not getting paid.

Well, a contact informed by that NAPPPA was back, this time peddling seminars under the name of NA3PA and with a website at www.na3pa.org:

From: NA3PA Announcements
Subject: Strategy Session: Program Planning, Evaluation, and Proposals (October 18 - 19, 2011: Los Angeles, CA)


NA3PA will be conducting the Program Planning, Evaluation, and Proposals Strategy Session in Los Angeles, California on October 18 - 19, 2011.  Interested development professionals, researchers, faculty, and graduate students should register as soon as possible, as demand means that seats will fill up quickly. Please forward, post, and distribute this e-mail to your colleagues and listservs.

For more information call (888) 673-8865 or visit our website at http://www.na3pa.org. Please find the program description below:

The Program Planning, Evaluation, and Proposals Strategy Session  is a hands-on, intensive session that leads participants through the entire grant proposal and funding research processes. Through an intense two day practicum, participants will receive an overview of program planning concepts along with advanced writing techniques to develop successful proposals. This results-based session combines individual exercises with group collaboration to allow each participant to leave the session with a Program Planning and Funding Dossier. Exercises leading up to the dossier and organization narrative include a thorough proposal outline, completed worksheets necessary for proposal submissions, and a starting collection of publications and resources to build a development library. Strategy Sessions is designed to provide your organization with the competitive advantage necessary in our modern grants award environment.

This session is ideal for those with a targeted program, but is equally effective for those who can identify their program and funding interests. Completion of the Pre-Session Interview and Assignments is essential to program success and value. Each participant will receive a selection of funding programs tailored to their program and/or areas of interest. Participants without a program will be provided a working example during Pre-Session.

The Program Planning, Evaluation, and Proposals Strategy Session will cover the following during the two day session:

(1) Fundamentals of Program Planning

This session will teach professional program development essentials and program evaluation. While most grantsmanship  "workshops" treat program development and evaluation as separate from the writing of a proposal, this will teach students the relationship between overall program planning and proposal writing.

(2) Strategic Funding Research

At its foundation, this session will address the basics of foundation, corporation, and government grant research. However, this course will emphasize a strategic funding research approach that encourages writers to see research not as something they do before they write a proposal, but as an integrated part of the grant  seeking process. Students will be exposed to online database research tools, as well as publications and directories that contain information about foundation, corporation, and government grant opportunities. Focusing on funding sources and basic social science research, this course teaches students how to use research as part of a strategic grant  acquisition effort.

(3) Professional Proposal Writing

Designed to obtain tangible results, this session will make each student an overall proposal writing   specialist. In addition to teaching the basic components of a grant proposal, successful approaches, and the do's and don'ts of grant writing, this session is infused with expert principles that will lead to a mastery of the process. Strategy resides at the forefront of this session's intent to illustrate grant writing as an integrated, multidimensional, and dynamic endeavor. Each student will learn to stop writing the grant  and to start writing the story. Ultimately, this session will conclude with a completed proposal outline.

Tuition for this two day strategy session is $398.00.

You have received this invitation due to specific educational affiliation. We respect your privacy and want to ensure that interested parties are made aware of NA3PA strategy sessions and schedules. This is intended to be a one-time announcement. In any event, you should not receive any more announcements unless there is a program next year in your area. To be unlisted from next year's announcement, send an email to remove@na3pa.org and write "Unlist" in the subject line.

The registrations details for the domain na3pa.org are hidden:

na3pa.org itself is hosted on 69.72.186.55 at Fortress ITX. If you get a spam from NA3PA (and you can be assured that it is a spam), then forward it to abuse -at- fortressitx.com.

That server also hosts napppanet2.org which has been used before, and similarly has an anonymous registration.

The email is sent from an apparantly address of losangeles@grantfundraising.org - grantfundraising.org is another recently registered anonymised domain.

(Update 21/10/11 - the domain academicresearcher.org is also in use by these people)

This operation appears to be run out of California, apparently from the Hacienda Heights area (the originating IP for the emails is always 173.55.115.38). I know that complaints have been filed with both the BBB and the California AG's office, but no action appears to have been taken.

If you have any experience of "NA3PA" please feel free to share them in the comments.

Fake jobs: all-cajobs.com, all-ukjobs.com and alleur-positions.com

Here we go again.. three new domains that form part of this long-running scam.

all-cajobs.coma
all-ukjobs.com
alleur-positions.com

The "jobs" offered are actually illegal activities such as money laundering. You may note that the email appears to come from yourself (here's why).

The domains are registered to a no-doubt fake registrant:

SMS Spam: loanslineuk.co.uk / Gary McNeish

Here's an annoying SMS spam sent from +447979520064:

Short on Cash? Need a payday loan? 100% Apps Processed. Up to £750 today. Apply now at www.loanslineuk.co.uk to Opt Out Rply stop

We can easily identify the owner of loanslineuk.co.uk from their WHOIS records:

Domain name:
        loanslineuk.co.uk

    Registrant:
        gary mcneish

    Registrant type:
        Unknown

    Registrant's address:
        flat 3 11a whitworth street
        opal house
        manchester
        M1 3GW
        United Kingdom

loanslineuk.co.uk simply forwards to moneyfix.co.uk via an affiliate link: www.moneyfix.co.uk/Default.aspx?AID=TETRUS&SAID=MONEYFIX_JPD_PARTNER1

The word "TETRUS" in the link is a clue. We can also see Gary McNeish's address on the domain for tetr.us.. well, we could before it was re-registered to an address in the Seychelles:

Registrant ID:                               CR17598876
Registrant Name:                             gary mcneish
Registrant Address1:                         flat 3 11a whitworth street
Registrant Address2:                         opal house
Registrant City:                             manchester
Registrant State/Province:                   lancashire
Registrant Postal Code:                      m1 3gw
Registrant Country:                          United Kingdom
Registrant Country Code:                     UK
Registrant Phone Number:                     +7.799764944
Registrant Email:                            gary@tetrustelecoms.com
Registrant Application Purpose:              P1

If we look at the domain registration for tetrustelecoms.com we see the bogus address:

    tetrus, tetrus  serialsniper@gmail.com
    tetrus
    capital city, lancashire M35 0AE
    SC
    +66.838273350

There can't be many people called Gary McNeish in Manchester, but oddly enough it isn't the same Gary McNeish who was fingered for a fake Data Protection scam in 2002, but this Gary McNeish (Gary John Peter McNeish) was mentioned by the Daily Telegraph recently in an article called "For sale: your mobile phone number" which questioned the way that Mr McNeish obtained telephone numbers for leads.

According to Companies House, Tetrus Ltd was dissolved on 22/3/11, so it should no longer be trading.

If you get one of these, you should forward the spam to your carrier. In the came of T-Mobile, O2 and Orange the number to report to is 7726 ("SPAM"). Vodafone customers should use 87726 ("VSPAM") and Three customers should use 37726 ("3SPAM"). Hopefully the carriers will act if there are enough complaints.

Several AdWords phishing sites at Prolexic

Prolexic is an anti-DDOS specialist hosting firm with a reputation for being one of the good guys. It's a bit of a surprise to see Google AdWords phishing sites on a Prolexic server, hopefully they won't be there for long.

The phishing messages look something like this:

From: Google AdWords

Something evil on 46.16.240.13

There's something evil on 46.16.240.13 that forms part of a banking trojan. Whatever the trojan is, it sends traffic to a set of randomly generated domains with a url ending in pontis.com/index.php.

Most of these domains aren't registered at present, but a few are and they live on 46.16.240.13 with nameservers at 46.16.240.14 and 46.16.240.15. This IP belongs to iNet in the Ukraine.. I suggest blocking 46.16.240.0/24 completely as every site I have ever seen there has been malicious.

These domains seem to be active (a full list is at the end of the post including some inactive ones):
