We're seeing huge amounts of spam coming from cox.net (68.230.241.0/24) over
the past few days. Going to our filtering system but also getting through to
Office 365 and Gmail accounts without any issue at all.

 

They are all the well written, formatted "please remit" type emails with a
Word Doc attached.

 

Interesting, the example I've had sent to me today went directly to my users
@domain.onmicrosoft.com address, so not to the custom domain. The customer
has never actually used the onmicrosoft.com domain for anything.

 

This is a repeat of what we saw from the same IP range in June. Anyone at
Cox.net that can comment?

 

 

 

Example of what we see:
