Today, we observed a spam campaign promoting online jobs and pharmaceutical products. What's worth noticing is the campaign utilizes social networking sites to promote and host spam images.
The sample email shown above comes as HTML with a clickable newsletter-like image. The images are being hosted in either Bebo, Facebook or Flickr. Here are other sample image links:
- Flickr - http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2570/4113648137_ba72a9f27d_o.gif
- Facebook - http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs043.snc3/13033_100945279932741_100000518086671_23486_5705714_n.jpg
The clickable image points to a tweet with a link pointing to an online job or an online pharmacy website.
Sadly, its yet another case of social networking sites being misused by the bad guys.
