iTunes "Christmas gift card" / api.myobfuscate.com / nikolamireasa.com
Here's a malware-laden spam with a twist:
In this case the link goes through a free web hosting site at [donotclick]longa-neara.ucoz.org which contains some heavily obfuscated javascript that eventually leads to malicious landing page on [donotclick]nikolamireasa.com/less/demands-probably.php hosted on 188.93.210.133 (logol.ru, Russia). That IP hosts the following toxic domains that you should block:
nikolamireasa.com
portgazza.cu.cc
hopercac.cu.cc
hopercas.cu.cc
ukumuxur.qhigh.com
ymuvyjih.25u.com
Heck, you might just want to cut your losses and block 188.93.210.0/23 too. Anyway, the curious thing is that the malicious javascript uses an intermediary obfuscation site called api.myobfuscate.com which you can see has been used to infect a few sites before.
Now, perhaps myobfuscate.com was created with the best of intentions, but if the bad guys have a use for it then you can bet they are probably about to abuse it in a big way.
Both api.myobfuscate.com and www.myobfuscate.com are hosted on the same IP at 188.64.170.17 (also in Russia) which is part of a tiny netblock of 188.64.170.16/31 which you may as well block too. The 188.64.170.17 IP also contains the following domains which might also be abused in the same way:
htmlobfuscator.com
api.htmlobfuscator.com
htmlobfuscator.info
javascript-obfuscator.info
javascriptcompressor.info
javascriptcrambler.com

myobfuscate.com
api.myobfuscate.com
obfuscatorjavascript.com
api.obfuscatorjavascript.com
js.robotext.com
js.robotext.info
js.robottext.ru
In my opinion, obfuscating javascript is a really bad thing and there is no legitimate reason to use it. Blocking access to free-to-use obfuscation tools like this may run the risk of breaking some legitimate sites. But only if they have been coded by idiots.

These IPs have been used in several attacks recently. You should block access if you can.
Zbot sites to block 5/12/12
These domains and IPs are involved in malware distribution, especially the Zbot trojan. Most are using the nameservers in the dnsnum10.com domain, or are co-hosted on the same server and have malicious characteristics.
I've come up with a recommended blocklist based on the characteristics on the netblocks in question. If you are based in Russia, Ukraine, Poland or Iran then you may want to review these carefully.

"ARK Bureau" (arkbureau.com) fake job offer
Update: I didn't look closely enough at the site, I discovered that arkbureau.com is also fake, as is this email. See more below. This is still trying to recruit people for money laundering though.
From: Odette Holcomb [mailto:nbnian@esonchem.co.kr]An alternative version uses the email address of arkbureau_manager@nokiamail.com. The two samples that I have seen have originating IP addresses of 174.52.171.8 (Comcast, US) and 109.173.54.245 (NCNET, Russia).
Sent: 03 December 2012 12:32
Subject: Help wanted.
POSITION: Customer Assistant
ABOUT COMPANY:
ARK Bureau has served hundreds of clients in the United Kingdom, Poland, France and Germany since 1998.
The firm was created by Lorinda Rogers, a young architect of Canadian origin. From its inception, ARK Bureau.s vision for design and construction was based on system approach, incorporating both building and landscape design. That philosophy has always meant the highest quality for our clients. That.s probably why ARK Bureau enjoys a strong loyalty from the past customers.
Now we have open vacancy in the U.S.: Customer Assistant
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Process payments from customers;
- Filing invoices, statements and associated documents;
- Meet and exceed performance and time management goals;
- Other duties as required.
GENERAL SKILLS:
- High communication skills;
- Strong problem solving and planning skills;
- Experienced computer & internet user.
APPLY:
To apply please: arkbureaumanager@nokiamail.com
You should give this fake company a wide berth unless you want to end up in serious trouble with law enforcement.
Update: I had originally assumed from the amateurish spam email that arkbureau.com belonged to a genuine company. However, a search of UK company records shows no such company, the domain was only registered a month ago to an address which is actually consistent with the one on the site:
Domain Name: ARKBUREAU.COM
Registrant:
N/A

108 Broadwick Street

London,W1F 8MT
GB
Tel. +44.448715283620
Creation Date: 16-Nov-2012
Expiration Date: 16-Nov-2013
Their site is full of stock images (like the one below) which can be found in many other places, most of which appear to be in the US (where they don't have an office).
Fundamentally, the whole thing is a fake. A good-looking fake, but a fake nonetheless.
These contact details are presumably also bogus:
Int'l Customer Care: +1 646 583 0506Well, a quick Google of "108 Broadwick Street" indicates that it probably doesn't exist. If we get down on the ground with Google Streetview we can see that Broadwick Street only goes up to number 76 which is a bank of cash machines. Also, the quoted postcode of W1F 8MT is wrong, that belongs to somewhere which is quite a walk from Broadwick Street.

Emails to info@arkbureau.com bounce, there is no such user configured on the server.
arkbureau.com itself is hosted on 64.191.88.71 (HostNOC, US). There are several other sites on the same server that look dedicated to either fraud or fake pharma. I would recommend that all of these sites are avoided:
