On the heels of Jeff saying he's seen a diminishing of spam--what a cruelty joke!--today I have been overwhelmed with hundreds of messages from <acc-validity@ncua.gov> with "System maintenance: update your Federal Credit Union" or a blank for the SUBJECT.

The messages are the usual junk, with a paragraph of gibberish folllowed by a bunch of worthless HTML.

QUESTION #1: Anyone else been victmized by this?

QUESTION #2 (rhetorical): Will this cr@p never cease?


Cheers,

BILL

Hi Bill,

I don't think that the email address tells much, since those are usually false or forged.
If you can provide the headers it will be easier to tell who is sending the emails.

You can check it yourself here:

And there are many other sites and software programs that provide this type of service.

For an example and explanation, you can check here:
