Spammers forging email from csamuel.org

It would appear some Y^$%&($#%& have been forging spam from my email address at csamuel.org.

I use GnuPG to PGP sign all my emails. If you get something from me that isn’t signed with GnuPG then it’s unlikely that I’ve written it.

I don’t spam, I hate spam, and the emails in question have never been near a system I control.

From the headers that I’ve seen they seem to be being sent from an IP address in China (218.11.213.132) belonging to “CHINANET hebei province network” as well as an IP address in Venezuala (200.44.150.90) belonging to CANTV Servicios, Venezuela.

I’ll be taking this up with them when I get back from work.

Where’s a big LART when you need one ?

  1. Your key is not self-signed, this generates problem when importing it (gpg –allow-non-selfsigned-uid), and I cannot sign it for the same reason.
    Thanks, Cheers, Jean-Damien.Durand@cern.ch
    PS: I tested your key after a recent post of yours in supercluster.org’s maui list.
