Re: [Full-Disclosure] Spam with PGP

Interesting,

If you look at the PGP signature, looks like they hit keys on the home row of the keyboard and added some numbers for good effect. Doesn't look like a "real" pgp key.

Sometimes MSN E-mail will indicate that the mesasge failed to be delivered. Please resend when you get those, it does not mean that the mail box is bad, merely that MSN mail is over worked at the time.

Otherwise, hope things are going well.

 I remember hearing this is another method for bypassing spam filters.
Apparently some filters will pass e-mail with PGP signatures thinking it
is legitimate. It is an interesting concept, though.

 I think my favorite is still the jpgin an html enabled e-mail with
seemingly valid information and links that is actually a link to an xss or
pr0n site. Spammers are starting to use better methodologies and soon
filtering options will be almost impossible. I find it amusing to see what
they will do next, though.
