Spam: March 2008 Archives

Trend Micro has a blog entry on calendar invite spam. I've been seeing that as well.

My biggest problem is reporting the spam. How do you get headers out of a meeting invite in Outlook? If I open the msg file the user forwarded, the headers are hidden by outlook. If I look in notepad, the text is encoded. Perhaps another mail client will be nicer.

In the examples I've seen the invite is from Google Calendar. Its another example of spam from a semi-trusted host.
