Subj: Just a warning to the folks... Emails sent possibly by the board software
Posted: Tue Aug 06, 2013 at 02:54:50 pm EDT (Viewed 1010 times)


Just a heads-up: I know people on this board are sensible about emails from an unknown source...


I've just had a number of rather odd emails sent from the message board entitled "The style looks like a sort of cross between PowerPuff Girls amd MLP.". I know they have come via the board as - in addition to the subject - the email in question is a single-purpose email.

They alledgedly - since the headers could be - come from someone called Heena , and contain some form of attachemnt which I couldn't readily identify (and I wasn't stupid enough to open the emails...). I recieved 8 copies of the message within about 2 minutes.

Looking at a quick google search the evidence is that this is a spammer rather than a malware merchant...




Jason - if it is any help to you, the mail headers are as below:
