If Your Email Address Is On This List Of 711,000,000, Change Your Password Now! by splendidng: 12:56pm On Aug 30, 2017 |
A spambot based in the Netherlands has been discovered to have 711,000,000 email addresses – which are being used to send spam & spread some malicious banking malware. The spambot is called Onliner & it is part of a large-scale malware operation that will bypass spam filters – with the passwords & emails used to ‘scope out’ victims for malware attacks.

In addition, if you see suspicious emails – often disguised as invoices – do NOT open them, because it could be malicious software designed to steal your banking details. However, those who have had their passwords leaked as well are likely to be targeted for their SMTP server – i.e to deliver spam. Attempts are being made to get the authorities in the Netherlands to shut it down.
