uk-resum.com fake job offer

This fake job offer originated from an IP address in Latvia (84.245.203.63) and solicits replies to a domain uk-resum.com registered in Russia. Most likely it is money laundering and/or a parcel reshipping scam. Also in this cluster are the domains usa-resum.com and resum-europe.com. It seems to be part of a long-running series of job scams going back several years.

Gawker related attack from 174.132.178.37

The recent Gawker media hack is probably related to a spate of malicious activity from 174.132.178.37, trying to log into forums, according to a couple of different reports on the web -  [1] [2] -  and my own experience of someone trying to get into a forum, presumably with Gawker harvested credentials. The purpose is unknown, but the person behind it may well be trying to use established accounts to spam forums.

Here is a sample email that you might get:

Dear ----------,

Your account on ---------- has been locked because someone has tried to log into the account with the wrong password more than 5 times. You will be able to attempt to log in again in another 15 minutes.

The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 174.132.178.37

Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? Use the link below:

Beware of worid-of-books.com

worid-of-books.com is a fake book download site punting malicious executables. The strange name can be explained if you substitute the lowercase "i" with an uppercase one, giving worId-of-books.com which is presumably meant to fool people.

The site looks reasonably credible and appears to have about a million downloadable books, but they are not all that they seem to be. If you try to download a book, you get an EXE file instead of a PDF. What's in the EXE file? Well, malware of course! Detection is fairly patchy according to VirusTotal, but this appears to be a Cycbot variant.

Download it a second time and you actually do get a PDF file.. well, an 8 byte file that just says "PDF file" and nothing else. Subsequent attempts seem to fail with an error message of "We are sorry, this book is now being checked. Try to download it later!". It's pretty clear that worid-of-books.com is tracking visitors (perhaps by IP address) to stop them being able to repeat the infection.

The site is hosted on 95.64.111.12 which is Asociatia Family Network Connections / FAMILY-NETWORK in Romania, along with a whole load of other sites. It's worth blocking everything in this IP range.

The ThreatExpert report is here, it might help you clean up your machine if infected.

Evil network: Asociatia Family Network Connections / FAMILY-NETWORK AS49253 (95.64.110.0/23)

Asociatia Family Network Connections / FAMILY-NETWORK is a Romanian network, and their AS49253 netblock seems to have suddenly turned evil.

The SiteVet report for this AS shows a sudden increase in recent weeks, with over 1500 sites that may be malicious included in the 95.64.110.0/23 block. Most of these evil sites are on just one host, 95.64.110.100. There may be some legitimate sites here, but probably too few to worry about.

Most sites registered here appeared to be Russian, some are registered through Chinese registars. The owner of this block is listed as:

inetnum:        95.64.110.0 - 95.64.111.255

Added: the owner of this netblock says that it is no longer in use, so it does appear that it has been hijacked somehow.. that would be consistent with the suddenly bad rankings.

You can see a CSV of domains and MyWOT ratings here, but there are too many domains to list here. Some of the domains have come from MD-ISP-MONITORING in Moldova.

Currently active IPs are:
95.64.110.36
95.64.110.37
95.64.110.43
95.64.110.45
95.64.110.48
95.64.110.50
95.64.110.66
95.64.110.100
95.64.110.105
95.64.111.11
95.64.111.12
95.64.111.14
95.64.111.15
95.64.111.16
..although to be honest, you should just block the lot of them.

Evil network: Informex / INFORMEX-NET AS20564 (193.178.172.0/24)

Informex on AS20564 (193.178.172.0/24) is a Ukranian operation implicated in a lot of bad things including banking trojans.

SiteVet.com fingers this as the 27th worst network on the net,  and links it to various malware domains and Zeus servers. There are a couple of hundred domains in this block, all worth blocking.. either by the whole IP address range or use this CSV file with MyWOT rankings, or see the list below.

Their own web server at informex.net is currently suspended (I wonder why), but it shows consistent details with the netblock owner, so at least we can see who allegedly is responsible.

      Informex Ltd.
      Andriy Lyasota
      28 Predslavinskaya Str.
      Kiev,   03680
      UA
      Phone: +1.380442528798
      Email: lyasota@terra.es

As I said, there's nothing at all of value here so blocking the entire lot will probably be safest for your client PCs.

Dynamoo.com is 10!

Dynamoo.com is 10 years old this week! Registered way back on 24th November 2000.. there wasn't much to see back then. Some would argue that there still isn't! Anyway, here's what the site looked like when it was first archived.

My first web site was created sometime in the mid 1990s (can't remember exactly when) and looked like this.

I largely learned about web design in the mid-90's and I think it still shows!

Slimeware sites to block

If you work in corporate IT, then you've probably had users come across sites that appear to be things like Acrobat Reader, Google Earth or some other application.. but are in fact a deceptive way to install some other software (typically some sort of adware). I call this "slimeware".

This list of sites are (in my view) [CSV] offering applications of limited use that you might want to consider blocking. Some example sites trade heavily on well-known names like Avast, Yahoo Messenger, Nero and other well-known apps. Quite a lot of these are sourced via MarketBay. Scroll down for some sample screenshots.

The list includes over 1000 sites of dubious value and a much shorter list of IP addresses (below) which might be easier, plus MyWOT ratings as a guide to the nastiness of the sites. You can download it from http://www.dynamoo.com/files/slimeware01.csv

IP Addresses:
64.38.49.191
64.141.101.204
64.141.103.177
64.150.190.80
67.212.90.67
67.212.90.71
67.212.90.72
67.212.90.73
67.214.176.218
67.215.2.90
67.215.2.98
67.215.2.99
67.215.2.100
84.22.98.11
208.82.121.34
208.82.121.46
208.82.121.69
208.82.121.140

Sample screenshots:

MarketBay.. yuk!

This post on the Sunbelt blog about apparently bogus anti-virus software rang a bell.. there was something eerily familiar about this whole operation that I'd seen before. A close examination of these so-called anti-virus sites shows a link to marketbay.com - so these look like some autogenerated affiliate sites or other.

MarketBay are pretty well known for shady practices, for example here and here. Before they were called marketbay.com, they were known as yourclick.com and run by a firm apparently called Three W Networks Ltd (Google it). Everything is hidden behind a shell company in the Bahamas, with a name of David Da Silva connected to it, although this is a fairly common name and it may well be assumed. The company recently changed name to Media Entertainment Guide, still quoting the Da Silva name and a Bahamas address as seen in the WHOIS for marketbay.org which is not privacy protected (unlike marketbay.com).

[As a side note, the historical WHOIS records for marketbay.com identify a previous owner who confirmed that the domain was sold to another party]

The software punted by MarketBay looks to be of questionable use, but that's an accusation that can be made against any one of a number of businesses.. caveat emptor and all that. But at the very least you can say that affiliates are marketing this software deceptively.

Now, the IP address of 67.212.90.64/28 is rather more fruitful to examine. It's a very small block of IP addresses, listed as belonging to Mango Ideas in Canada (note: these sites are no longer hosted there as of March 2011)

There is certainly nothing worth visiting in 67.212.90.64/28 and blocking the whole lot would probably save you some headaches, The block seems to be clean, but for research interest, the sites that WERE hosted are listed in this this CSV file with MyWOT ratings attached.

Update 23/3/11: It appears that most of the sites are no longer hosted here (they appear to have moved to other Canadian hosts), there are a few remaining sites that I can't vouch for one way or another.. as it is, I would suggest that this block is now clean and no longer evil.

Mr Kennedy says that he assumes that the bad sites were probably put on there by a reseller or perhaps a compromised account, and they have a very strict anti-abuse policy.

It's 30 for a reason, part 2

This guy claims that he was doing 20mph before he demolished about 15 metres of fencing, two gateposts and one gate before hitting my house.. backwards. I am largely disinclined to believe him.

I don't know what you have to do to pass a driving test in Lithuania where this guy hails from. I suspect driving backwards into a house isn't part of the test though.

But.. this isn't the first time that this has happened either. Three years ago we were lucky not to be picking body parts out of the garden after this accident.

And the speed limit? 30 miles per hour. It's 30 for a reason..

theciosummits.org / CIO Summits spam

theciosummits.org / CIO Summits is the same outfit as BizSummits  who have a particular spamming technique that has been seen before.

The technique appears to be that they search a website for strings that look like names, and then they try and guess the email address for that person at that domain. Email addresses tend to follow a limited number of formats, so it probably gets a reasonable success rate, but even so.. the name is still scraped and the recipient emailed without opting in to anything.

Hi James, is now a better time to reach out to you in regards to the CIO
Summit? You received a request on behalf of our Board due to your key
role in the technology field and I'm curious to know if a decision has
been made.

The CIO Summit is an invitation-only group comprised of the very best
executives and visionaries in technology. We meet monthly by
teleconference to exchange what is working, what is not, strategies and
ideas. It is a confidential forum with dedicated groups of other
successful VPs and key executives whose only agenda is to help each other
outperform. Our site is at www.theciosummits.org

I am certain you will find the experience both enjoyable and useful in
your efforts. Please take a look and let me know of your decision. Thanks,
 James.

Sincerely,
Jason Williams

us at 201 17th St, #1200, Atlanta, GA 30363. Thank you.

Who is James Studer exactly? It turns out that he was a contributor to the Orange Book, which I have a section about on my website.. and as with the BizSummits spam I've seen before, the pattern is exactly the same.

CIO Summit's pitch looks fairly deceptive. They have guessed an email address, apparently to make it look like we have a prior relationship. It's worth noting as well that the BBB give parent BizSummits a very poor "F" rating which definitely makes it look like one to avoid.

Massive yourfreeworld.com / downlinegoldmine.com spam run

Sometimes it is difficult to tell if a spam run is a Joe Job, or if the spammer is really a moron.

Over the past few hours, a massive spam run has been caught by several spamtraps and has also been spammed out heaving to spamcop.net email addresses:

The originating IP is 64.244.62.22 [Point North Networks / XO Communications, US] pointing to two spamvertised sites, downlinegoldmine.com on 72.29.67.174 and yourfreeworld.com on 66.7.201.119  [both at Hostime, Orlando].

Almost all MLMs are some sort of scam, and these are two sites promoting MLMs. But these sites also promote "safe email sendlists", but clearly sending hundreds of spam emails to spamtraps is clearly a poor definition of "safelist".. it's almost as if this activity is deliberately designed to generate spam complaints..

..and here's the thing. There's no evidence linking 64.244.62.22 to the alleged sender, and sending massive amounts of the same email to SpamCop.net addresses is either a massively stupid move, or it could be a deliberate attack on these sites by an unknown party.

In my opinion, both yourfreeworld.com and downlinegoldmine.com look like crappy sites that are worth avoiding.

"Polden Financial" / poldenfs.co.uk spam

This following spam was sent to a complete invalid email address, most likely harvested from the web. Although I suspect that the sender probably acquired the email address in good faith, it shows a complete lack of due diligence by the sender to spam random addresses like this. Given that the spammer claims to be a financial adviser, then you should draw your own conclusions about their reliability.

When did you last review your pension plans?


Do you know what to expect from your pensions 

when you retire?

Was your pension set-up during a previous employment or with a financial adviser you no longer have contact with? 

Your pension may not have been reviewed for a number of years or it may NEVER have been reviewed.

Could it be worth reviewing your pensions, possibly bringing them all under �one roof�? and...

Have a better understanding of your current position as far as your retirement planning is concerned.

Receive professional advice on the levels of funding into your pension plans.

Potentially reduce the charges on your pension plans, which could help you increase your income in retirement.

Would you like a clear investment strategy that matches your own attitude towards investment risk in an economic climate, which is un-clear?

Regular reviews to keep your pension on track and access to new opportunities that might help you derive a greater income in retirement.

For simple explanations to help you understand your pension planning and how it will benefit you.

  
Telephone  01278 445968  or email  adviser@poldenfs.co.uk  today 

and we can discuss our review process in full.


PO Box 359, Bridgwater, Somerset TA6 9AS

Polden Financial   is a trading style of Rosemount Financial Solutions Ltd who are an appointed Representative of Intrinsic Financial Planning Ltd, Registered in England 5372217, Wakefield House, Aspect Park, Pipers Way, Swindon, SN3 1SA. Intrinsic Financial Services is a holding Company, subsidiaries of which are authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. The information contained in this message is confidential and may be legally priviledged. If you are not the intended recipient, please do not read, copy or otherwise use it and do not disclose it to anyone else.  Please notify ! the sender of the delivery error and then delete the message from your system.  Any views or opinions expressed in this e-mail are those of the author only.  Email communications are not secure. For this reason Rosemount Financial Solutions cannot guarantee the security of the email or its contents or that it remains virus free once sent.

 I always love those self-important disclaimers at the end, especially when it comes to spam.. as I will publish details of spam as I f--king well see fit.

The spam originates from 78.109.170.7 (identifying itself as belonging to emarketingdesigndelivery.co.uk in Somerset) , and unusually for a spam it doesn't link to a website and solicits replies to adviser@poldenfs.co.uk or 01278 445968 instead. The domain poldenfs.co.uk is also registered to an individual in Somerset, so the originating IP address seems to be a close match to the business.

The WHOIS entry for the domain poldenfs.co.uk (and poldenfs.com) list their web host as the contact, not the spammer themselves. The number 01278 445968 does match a record at the FSA for Polden Financial Solutions LLC but marks them as no longer being "authorised". Companies House lists that company as being at:

POLDEN FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS LLP
40 WOODBOROUGH ROAD
WINSCOMBE
SOMERSET
BS25 1AG
Company No. OC313363

Records indicate that this business is operated by a John McBurnie who is listed as a representative of Rosemount Financial Solutions Ltd., and the email does say that Polden is a trading style of Rosemount FS, which is correct.

In fact, everything about this firm seems to check out OK apart from the fact that they send unsolicited commercial email to invalid addresses. But in my view, that's enough to avoid doing business with them.

As an aside, you might want to amuse yourself with this Google search about poldenfs.co.uk.

Rev2Share.com spam

Following one a day from this almost identical MySuperShares.com spam, this email also appears to be trying to game a "get rich quick" MLM scheme with fake signups.

It's not a Joe Job as such, the email originates from 174.122.225.73 which is the same server that Rev2Share.com is hosted on along with a bunch of shabby MLM sites. The domain was registered just days ago, the WHOIS details seem to be accurate:

The physical address checks out, it would be highly unusual for a deliberate scammer to post their real address (even if most MLMs do turn out to be scams in the end). So it does appear that a third party is involved, using Rev2Share.com's own systems to generate fake signups, either to shut the site down or to game the system for personal profit.

It is probably no coincidence that both Rev2Share.com (hosted on 174.122.225.73) and MySuperShares.com (174.122.14.227) have an almost identical business model that claims to be selling advertising (only on their own sites) but in fact concentrates on getting signups to generate a download instead. When you see a very thin product offering like this with an emphasis on recruiting other people, then that it usually a bad sign.. best to avoid it altogether in my opinion.

MySuperShares.com spam

In my view, all MLM schemes are almost always scams.. and MySuperShares.com seems to be just another MLM scheme, this time selling "ads" that only seem to display on the MySuperShares.com site. But the real carrot is the promise of downlines if you sign someone else up.. in other words, a thin product offering with a concentration on signing up other members rather than selling a real product.

The scheme itself is based in Australia, and I am no expert in Australian law. So, let's assume that this type of MLM scheme is legal in Australia for now.

Still, this particular email seemed unusually brazen..

It's unusual for fraudsters to include their real contact details in the WHOIS, in fact everything checks out as being legitimate, it you check out the MLM business model.

There are a few possibilities:

1. The people running the site are really stupid and think that this is a good way to get signups (rather than getting your site nuked)
2. Someone is using MySuperShare.com's own system to perform a Joe Job with deliberately false signups.
3. Someone thinks that they can make money by gaming MySuperShare.com's system with fake signups.

My best bet is that it is the #2 or #3 option, because I really don't think that the site operators are so stupid as to try spamming like this. Does that mean that it is a legitimate programme? Well, put it this way.. do you really think that it is feasible to make money by selling nothing of value?

Update:it does appear that someone is targetting these MLM "get rich quick" sites as another site called Rev2Share.com has also been hit.

Evil network: Alex Gorbunov / GORBY-VPN-NET AS51303 (195.226.197.0/24)

A small but nasty netblock hosting ZeuS C&C servers and Phoenix exploit kit attacks, GORBY-VPN-NET (registered to an Alex Gorbunov) seems to have no legitimate sites at all. There aren't a lot of sites in this range (I see just 24) but there does seem to be quite a lot of malicious activity. I recommend that you block access to 195.226.197.0/24.

"Bikini Robot Army" spam

I've never listened to Bikini Robot Army (although for some reason I have heard of them), but this spam run I was at the wrong end of did tempt me to give them a listen, if only to hear what a spammer sounds like.. basically pretty derivative and dull but somewhat technically competent. In other words.. it sounds like the musical equivalent of spam.

This email originates from 216.92.1.93 spavertising bikinirobotarmy.com on 216.92.45.18 plus a defunct Facebook page, MySpace page and Twitter account. Frankly I'd give them a miss if they have to resort to unsolicited bulk email to drum up interest.

Slightly amusingly, their spam has this line in it: Bill Gates - "I gave Bikini Robot Army YOUR email address!” - I don't think he did.

sshopper.net "mystery shopper" scam

We've seen this scam before, but this type the mystery shopper scam uses a domain of sshopper.net to solicit replies. Avoid.

Re: MS/Secret Shopper [$700/week]

Thank you for your interest in the MS Shopper position.
Our company conducts surveys and evaluates other companies in order to help them achieve their performance goals.
We offer an integrated suite of business solutions that enables corporations to achieve tangible results in the marketplace.

We get hired by other companies and act like customers to find out how they are handling their services in relation to their customers.
MS Shopping is the most accurate and reliable tool a business can use to gather information regarding their actual customer service performance at the moment of truth.
This moment of truth is not when the staff is on their best behavior because the boss is around - it is when they interact with customers during their normal daily routines.

This is where you, the MS Shopper, come in.
You pose as an ordinary customer and provide feedback of both factual observations (ex...the floor was free of debris)
and your own opinions (ex...I felt that the temperature in the establishment was too cold).

MS Shoppers must remain anonymous. You must act as a regular customer and be careful not to do anything that would reveal you as a shopper.
An inexperienced shopper could tip off the staff to his/her identity by asking for the manager's name for no clear or appropriate reason.
If you are going to be bringing someone with you on the shop, make sure you educate them about the process as well.
Beware that even whispers can be overheard by employees. If anyone notices you are a shopper,
you can bet that word will quickly spread around the establishment and you will get some of the best customer service in town.

No company can afford to have a gap between the promise of quality and its actual delivery, that's why leading corporations look to us,
the nation's premiere MS shopping and customer experience measurement company.

In order for a business to effectively compete in today's economy, they must be prepared to meet the challenge of increasing sales by:
* Retaining existing customers
* Acquiring new customers
* Creating word-of-mouth advocacy
* Improving customer loyalty

Once we have a contract to do so, you would be directed to the company or outlet, and you would be given
the funds you need to do the job(either purchase merchandise or require services), after which you would write a detailed report of your experience.

Examples of details you would forward to us are:
1) How long does it take to get served.
2) Politeness of the attendant.
3) Customer service professionalism.
4) Sometimes you might be required to upset the attendant, to see how they deal with difficult clients.

Then we turn the information over to the company executives and they will carry out their own duties in improving their services.
Most companies employ our assistance when people complain about their services, or when they feel there is a need for them to improve upon their customer service.
Our company partners with you to implement proven MS shop auditing and surveying strategies that provide critical information about customer experiences.

You will be paid a commission of $100 for every duty you carry out, and bonus on your transportation allowance.
Your task will be to evaluate and comment on customer service in a wide variety of restaurants, retail stores, casinos,
shopping malls, banks and hotels in your area.

Qualities of a good MS Shopper:
* Is 21 years of age or older
* Loves to go shopping
* Is fair and objective
* Is ON TIME
* Is very observant and able to focus on details
* Is fairly intelligent
* Has patience
* Is detail oriented
* Is practical
* Types well
* Is trustworthy
* Explains well in writing
* Is discreet
* Loves to learn
* Handles deadlines
* Has full internet access (at home or at work)

MS Shopping is fun and exciting but also must be approached very seriously and is definitely not for everyone.

If you are interested in applying for consideration as a MS Shopper do send in your information: Guadalupe@sshopper.net

Evil network: DG Holding SIA / ALTNET-LV AS41390 (195.3.144.0/22)

DG Holding SIA / ALTNET-LV is another evil network, and it's no surprise to see that it is in Latvia. The 195.3.144.0/22 hosts sites involved in hacking, malware distribution, MLM scams, fake goods and porn plus a number of ZeuS C&C servers.

There are a small number of legitimate customers in this block, but they most cater for Latvian users only.. if you are outside of Latvia, then very little will be lost by blocking this entire /22 (195.3.144.0 - 195.3.147.255).

There's a listing of domains, IPs and MyWOT ratings here [csv] if you want to probe more deeply and avoid blocking the handul of legitimate sites.. otherwise, I would recommend blocking the lot.

Evil network: MD-ISP-MONITORING, AS25129 (89.187.32.0/19)

AS25129 (89.187.32.0/19) features a lot of refugees from another evil network, Najada. There's nothing of value in this netblock, sites seem to feature illegal software, fake anti-virus, criminal support infrastructure, fake pharma sites and phishing.

The IP range is allocated to:

The myWOT reputation of these sites is very bad [CSV], my recommendation is that you block 89.187.52.0 - 89.187.55.255 (89.187.32.0/19) or alternatively null route the sites below.
