I'm Not Spamming You!

... but someone certainly is, using a non-existant MarketingStudies.net e-mail address.

If you receive an e-mail with the subject "Got It, I Think" from tahaseggdzf@marketingstudies.net, or something simillar, it's spam. Not from us though ...

This is how it works:

(a) The spammer finds a number of open relay e-mail servers, which allow the spammer to send e-mail using an e-mail address that's not "hosted" on the e-mail server and often without even having a user account at the server provider.

(b) He or she then uses your e-mail address as the "Reply To" e-mail address in the spam messages and sends out the spam blast.

(c) Everyone receiving these e-mail messages will now think they are coming from your domain, unless of course they have enough knowledge about the subject to check the headers of the e-mail messages received. Those show that the e-mail is in fact not coming from MarketingStudies.net.

The funny thing about this spam is that the spammer didn't include any links in his spam e-mail.

Looking for ways to stop this, but I'm affraid it might be impossible ...
