damn that's messed up

 

It's fake. Look at the address... "350zforums.org" (real) vs. "350zfourms.org" (fake, which is posted above)

 

Yeah i noticed the wrong spelling was well. I was just baffled

 

CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW I CAN GET THIS *** in trouble for this? it emailed 570 people and WE DID NOT DO IT PM me please

 

how do you know it emailed out to 570 people?

 

because AnD hosting gave me his IP address, traced it back to my customer email database and showed me all the palces he was visiting inside the forum section. Whoever they are they didnt cover their tracks and will be my ***** soon

 

Haha, that's pretty funny.

 

Post his IP address and let the fun begin.

 

81.214.230.36 oops did i do that?

 

Well unless they are from Turkey, you won't get too far with that IP:

dsl.dynamic8121423036.ttnet.net.tr

http://ttnet.net.tr/eng_default.asp

 

Your not gonna have much luck doing anything yourself because it's probably a dynamic IP and most ISP only keep IP 's leas for a week or 2. If he/she turned off his PC before the lease expires someone else could have grabbed the IP.

The only recourse you have is to contact the ISP and let them figure it out. They can track by who had that IP on the date in question.

 

Hey Dave, I'm a Network Engineer with Sun Microsystems. I talked this over with a couple of our security folks, and it was unanimous that a) if you did try to do something and the original hacker became aware of it, you would certainly bring further retaliation, and b) since this is an overseas IP, reporting to the FBI is basically useless. The best thing to do now is damage control, and security audit. If you've done those, move on and get cozy in the dangerous world of cyberspace!

 

It seems the culprit mistyped "forum" when using the sendmail commands

 

Hmm, It looks very simular to a virus that was going around a while back. If so it's fairly harmless except for the fact that when it hits a PC it resends itself out to everyone in that PC's address book and so on & so on. It can cripple a corporate exchange server fairly quickly.

We actually got hit (about 60 PC's out of 12,000). The emails reflected as from admin@companyname.com.

 

Here in Nissan land...I guess it would be SHIFT_ehlo.

 

I forgot this forum is filled with computer savvy(IT/IS) members...do you guys spend as much time on this site as I do at work???

 

Oh yeah...I'm on the site consistently through the day. I usually just scan for topics then get back to work, posting when I want to (he says 3 thousand + posts later.)

 

Same here. There isn't that much traffic to be on it all day. I normally check my favorite forums on this site at least 3 times a day.
