Hav0c Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I am getting a lot of phishing emails, send them off to my AV (Eset) and they add it to their signature list all the time. They gave me a link to help battle the fight against phishing. So join in it's really fun !!

Derek891 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hello Hav0c - Years and years ago, when I was young(er) and (a little more) foolish, I started out with AOL. My inbox was inundated with everything under there sun. It was a major task keeping up with it, and I would say 95% or more of it was nothing but pure junk. Advertising, spam, phishing, people selling God, you name it. Several years later I got EarthLink, and noticed a huge drop in the amount of junk mail. About five years ago I got Verizon FIOS, and I have to admit, they do an excellent job of filtering out the junk. The only people or companies I get email from are the ones I gave my email address to, and that's it. I'd like to help you in your campaign, but I have absolutely nothing to offer. Start every day with a smile and get it over with. - W.C. Fields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted April 30, 2014 Moderators Share Posted April 30, 2014 +1 for the EarthLink spam blocker and their corresponding anti phishing send address ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Winapp2.ini Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 oh joyous, I get loads of phishing attempts directed to emails that dont exist @winapp2.com winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hav0c Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 @Derek891 You did have something to offer namely EarthLink . This is just more of a "awareness" post to counter phishing, maybe EarthLink also needs users to help them counter phishing by sending in the links, I don't know. But one thing is for sure and that is AV companies appropriate it if their users send them phishing links or HTML attachments. Banks fraud department also appropriate it when customers sends them the links. @Winapp2 The spam bots that the guys uses just random the mail address. Some of them are very good at it also. I got a gmail address in format xxxxx(dot)yyyyyy and get mail for xxxxxyyyyyy and it's 99% phishing mails. So I just send it off to my AV. Every line of code written by man can be undone by man .

TheWebAtom Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Send your phishing emails to your AV as well, together we can win! Most A/V products outsource their spam fighting efforts. In most cases sending them to your A/V provider will just annoy them - probably why they directed you to PhishTank. I'm Shane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hav0c Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 gmail ignores dots in email handles. x.x.x.x.x.yyyyy@gmail.com will send to xxxxxyyyyy@gmail.com If so, then why can there be a user xxxxx.yyyyy@gmail.com and xxxxxyyyyy@gmail.com active at the same time ? wouldn't that course a user already exist error ?

Moderators hazelnut Posted September 2, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 2, 2014 I put ninite.com into that site. At the end it seems to assume it is MY site and gives recommdations for firewall etc (through them and paying for it of course) Not a site I'd use in future, it gives exactly the same result if you ask them to scan.... ninite.com/piriform Probably use http://www.urlvoid.com/ Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hav0c Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 The site isn't that user friendly and it assumes that the user is scanning their own sites. The couple of sites that I tested worked nicely getting hits. Case in point http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/www.lpmxp1072.com But thanks for the input hazelnut Every line of code written by man can be undone by man .
