Lustige SPAM „Europol“

Aus gegebenem Anlass stelle ich heute wieder ein besonders misslungenes Beispiel einer SPAM-Mail vor. Die gestern Nachmittag eingegangene SPAM sieht so aus: ((Bild))

Ja, genau so:

Absender Gmail! Die Polizei sendet von Gmail? Ja, nee, is' klar. Hier braucht man schon nicht mehr weiter zu lesen.
Adressat: Verborgene Empfänger. Ichsachmaso: Wenn es mich persönlich anginge, würde ich persönlich angeschrieben.
Ein nichtssagender Betreff, der über das Anliegen genau nichts aussagt.
Komplett leerer Textkörper, kein Hinweis auf den Sinn dieser Nachricht.
Der Name des Anhangs lautet "Datum.pdf" - auch höchst aussagekräftig.

In signs of the #BadEconomy. Though at about $4 a can, not sure how much cheaper it is than other options.

Spam makes a comeback as pinched shoppers embrace the cheap canned meat

With global turmoil rattling nerves, employment uncertainty looming, and wallet-busting grocery bills hitting home, anxious and humbled shoppers are turning to the canned meat for sustenance and sa…

@bert_hubert ik zia als IT-er een hoop poeha over #AI maar voornamelijk alleen de negatieve kanten. De mensen die er positief over zijn zijn echt niet 20x sneller in programmeren. Toename in #spam is wel 20x meer geworden (mijn waarneming).

Ik heb d'r weer eentje gekregen. 🙂
Komt dit door de hack bij #Odido ?

Behalve de standaard opmerkingen ....
- Ik rijd niet eens een auto .
- Wij werken niet met strafpunten op het rijbewijs
- 2e afbeelding: Ik heb geprobeerd de afzender te achterhalen en kwam bij deze (ex-)site uit.

Krijgt u ook dit soort mailtjes ?

🤡 Spoiler alert: the article warns us that #spam is now dressed-up in its Sunday best, thanks to "vibe-coding." 🎩✨ The author seems genuinely concerned that our inboxes might become too eye-catching, as if the real problem with spam was always its lack of #aesthetic appeal. 📬💅

Why Email Spam Looks Better Than Usual These Days

The problem with making coding easier for more people is that it makes spam more conventionally attractive. Which is bad.

Everyone, be careful, phishing accounts are roaming the #fediverse again.

The one I just "caught" comes from your instance @GossiTheDog.
Their @ is Notification_NA

As a reminder to all #Mastodon and Fediverse users, there is no "Mastodon Team" that will send you messages telling you that you won something or that there is a problem with your account (know who your admins are, only them can do the latter) or anything else like that.

Hello spam account sending out suspicious links.

Reported and blocked.

#spam

Due to an ongoing spam wave, we've closed registrations for the first time since opening up in 2023.

This attack creates accounts fully automated at a rate of close to 10 accounts per minute, burning through our email credits. We're not sure what the end goal is.

If you're looking for an account, then no worries! New accounts can still be created through invites which existing users can generate. (Please, please don't post these publicly though!)

Invites can also be requested by existing mastodon users on other instances by DM'ing @Purple for now.

Sorry for the inconvenience
