Just a prank???
« on: July 08, 2010, 06:55:37 AM »
I received this email from "chris@hrn.in" in my spam folder:


Quote
You are welcomed with a command of hackers ZeleniyHach

We hold a huge network of Distributed Denial Of Service Attack, allowing to suspend any web site. We have been watching ... (one of my domains) and were able to find out that you have spent pretty money much for its advancement and we want to to offer you to spend a little more yet. Just as little as 200 bucks as a voluntary donation to our fund will keep your web site away from DDOS attack.

200 bucks is not so much also will help you to avoid greater problems in the future.

FOR DULLS..!!! IF YOU DO NOT OFFER TO US 200 bucks WE WILL KILL YOUR WEB SITE!

Unfortunately, we accept only Webmoney Paymer Cheks, so make sure to get your fat asses out and without assistance find out how to transfer money into it. We give you 48 hours. If after 48 hours we will not get 200 dollars, there is one more 0 will be added to 200 bucks, i.e. 2000 bucks and so on until you come to reason.

Stingy pays twice )

When you are ready, just send the check as your response to this message (josefinespicher@yahoo.com).
In subject matter of the letter specify the domain with greater letters, it is a lot of you We are the one, respect our work.

Respectfully, Top Manager of ZeleniyHach project.


Should I just laugh or take some action to stop silly kids from bothering people? 8)

And what kind of action?

You should pack a group of heavies with baseball bats into a York Minibus and send them of to sort out these people once and for all!

Which seems to be a manipulated IP. utrace.de says: "Unfortunately we could not find a matching location."

My email client has identified it as spam probably on the basis of this being a non-existent IP.

You must be truly a concerned father. Could you tell us the name of your kid and who taught him how to use a computer, Rif Raf?  8) ;D

Why don't you just ask your colleague, the stork, to deliver one to you?

Aren't you the guy who asked his account to be closed? You even let your siamese twin brother complain that it wasn't done right away and insist upon it being done. I hope you're feeling alright now. After backing up the database I did delete it by your request. Not one honest member has ever been banned from using this forum. Maybe you have just woken up from too much partying that left you unable to hit the right buttons and express yourself properly. Or maybe you just typed a wrong url. I can only speculate...  ;D

Does this now keep you from registering again?

An Error Has Occurred! Sorry, but you're not allowed to register multiple accounts at the same time from the same computer.

Should show some people that it isn't the IP alone that identifies them...  ;)
