More on Blue Security supposed compromised
May 1st, 2006
Continued from my previous post, Richi from Richi’Blog analyzes this correctly, I think:
Presumably a spammer has taken his list and “cleaned” it against the blue list, then done a diff? Like I say, I’m amazed it’s taken so long.
Quite clearly this spammer has only sent this eMail to people that were already on his list and matched against a Blue Security hash. Thanks to JohnSolver for thie link to Blue Security’s response, their web-site is slow… Maybe a DoS by the same spammer to go along with the FUD?
One response to the body of the spammer’s text:
BlueSecurity lists a USA address as their place of business, whereas their main office is in Tel Aviv.
So what? Many Israeli technology companies incorporate in Delaware for taxation reasons. The next line is clearly defamatory with no real value:
BlueSecurity is run by a few Russian-born Jews, who have previously been spamming themselves.
Their heritage is beside the point. Also even had they were spammers previously, the spammer behind this eMail has no right to make anonymous accusations.
