Bill,
Thanks for the internet help. I noticed that
on the scam spam, it may say it came from "mindspring" but when you put the
address numbers in the search engine you provided, the answer can be totally
different. Have you gotten the one about the $35 million frozen in an
account in Nigeria and they want you to be their partner to help get the money
to the US?
I got three different ones like this in the past
three weeks. One scam artists said his boss had died with $25 mil. frozen and he
wanted me to show up and say I was a relative. These people are based in
Nigeria. What are the chances I would even remotely look like someone who could
possibly be related to this guy? More likely, it's a scam to kidnap for
ransom stupid US citizens. One scamster wanted me to fly to The Netherlands to
meet his lawyer - courier. When I said I wasn't leaving the US, he could wire
the money, he lost interest. I offered to manage a small amount for him as a
trial, but he hasn't gotten back to me. Gee, I wonder why?
Cheers,Norman

Norm:
There is some information under Spam Primer at the
bottom of the page. Basically, one has to get the ISP address (format is
xxx.yyy.zzz.qqq, but not always in groups of 3). You will find them by
clicking on the header of the message and then FILE|PROPERTIES\DETAIL.
Then one puts those numbers into the IP Whois box and up pops the information
about the ISP. One wants the originating ISP, but when in doubt I
checkout all of the ISP addresses. Then send the complaint either
to abuse@xxxxxxx/net (send to all
if not sure which is originating), or what I do is send everything to <A
href="mailto:ISP.com/net@xxxxxxxxx";>ISP.com/net@xxxxxxxxx. abuse.net
is a spam fighting outfit that will forward the information to the proper
party. A copy should also be sent to the FTC. The message that is
forwarded by you is the one that you receive plus a copy of the full Detail
page from the property box. I find that the majority come from China,
Hong Kong, Malaysia, and eastern Europe, and perhaps 3/4 of the ISPs do
nothing, but some are very aggressive. You can get more information from
the anti-spam webpages, including: <A
href="http://www.abuse.net/";>http://www.abuse.net/ and <A
href="http://www.abuse.net/";>http://www.abuse.net/.

Bill,
Could you please further explain
your internet lingo below? Which are the different fields etc? Perhaps
you could explain how to read those numbers?
Thanks,Norman

Here is a freebie that works quite well.
Just pick up the 4 field number from the property listing for the address
field, plug it in and it will tell all:
<A
href="http://combat.uxn.com/";>http://combat.uxn.com/

Subject: [RT] Off Topic (Tracking
e-mail sources)
Is there a way to track the source of
e-mails? I believe I may be targeted by an individual sending me a virus
and inserting a bogus return address and / or sender.
This has happened many times and the last
two return address is from "clydelee <<A
href="mailto:clydelee@xxxxxxxxxx";>clydelee@xxxxxxxxxx>" and "ted
<ted@xxxxxxxxxxx>" but many
have been non deliverable addresses. I have the complete tracking
details of some of these attacks, but am unsure how to read
them.
Any help will be
appreciated,
Adam
