3rd Spam Mail [Subject : This is my cellphone number]



This Spam mail is quiet different. This guy has used my own email id and sent me an email. As i said he didn't actually hacked into my Account but this method of fraudulent is called Spoofing. The texts inbetween the lines is the header of the Original Email as sent by the spammer.

First i tried to trace the location of the server that the Spammer used to send me an Email through IPLIGENCE.COM. I got this IP address: 70.20.20.56. This should have been an Email from Google Server but This IP address points the VERIZON.NET server as per WHOIS IP report of DNSCHART.COM. By this the Spammer used the option of Spoofing to send me an email, Like i have sent an email to myself. This Email consits of Various unknown links, which when visited can or may have a threat of downloading VIRUSES. So be careful if you receive such emails.

By Clicking the Above image file, The Picture document of the email that i received can be viewed clearly.
