Today we have a new spam campaign which uses five domain names, all registered in China on Bizcn.com, being used to download a computer program which would steal your passwords and send them to criminals.
Both of the groups of five domains used a nameserver which was located on the IP address 69.162.111.11 (which is in Dallas, Texas).
When you visited the webpage yesterday, a pop up box asked you to download a video player. Today when you visit one of the Colonial webpages, a pop up box asks you to download a digital certificate.
Yesterday we received over 500 copies of the Obama spam with various subjects.
