So for the last couple of weeks I've been receiving viruses mailed from the IP :
host86-132-36-72.range86-132.btcentralplus.com [86.132.36.72]
The mails destined for all kinds of different maiden-world.com addresses, contain fake text customized by an individual to try and target both me & steve's computers.
Now whoever's doing this decided to start trying to mail my own personal accounts, from maiden-world.com addresses.
If whoever's doing this happens to read this post, note the following.
1. My mail filtering isn't stupid, all your mails are bouncing and not getting delivered, instead filtered with rejection noticed.
2. Even supposing you managed to successfully deliver one of these rather 'clever' messages convincing me that the "Maiden World Administrator" wants me to run your .zip file, I have an Apple computer, and so does Steve. Whatever's in there wont work anyway.
This post is just to flag the IP as bad, and give a heads up to any users who might recieve crap formatted like this. Here's an example of the mails
The mail has a .ZIP file containing a virus attached, obviously I suggest if anyone else is recieving these they shouldn't open them..
Thanks,
