Yeah, if they wanted to, they could pay for a reporting service.. that would alert them to bad behavior.. and I think we all have too much to do to report things if it isn't going to make a difference..

Or of course, so could Amazon, Google and AWS.. Seems the bigger they are, the cheaper they get.. ;)

Oh, and OFF TOPIC..

Increase in PHISHING from t-online.de

I believe there is an admin lurking on this list..

Increase of DHL Phishing from compromised accounts on their network, wanted to chat offlist on this subject.. Trying to confirm if this actor is using real compromised accounts, or creating fake accounts and using the same authentication attack methods as we see with compromised accounts, just a bit of curiousity and information for the threat team, as we increase granular identification of actors involved..

(Course, glad to talk to anyone still suffering under load from dealing with this, seems some common trends across the industry right now, and common pain points)

The reason I was reminded of this, was the OVH discussions.. seeing more use of their networks to launch phishing through compromised account..

(Shameless plug.. see RATS-AUTH, RATS-NULL, add look-ups to all auth attempts.. )

We will move to reject anyway but I was thinking more about helping them with the IPs in order to clean their customer base a bit. But most probably they are well aware and they just don't wanna lose money :)

    Yeha, OVH is up there, and while they generally have a poor abuse team,
    (with maybe one or two notable exceptions) and they do nothing to be
    pro-active in preventing snow shoe spammers (you should see our data on
    them), maybe we should post a hall of shame..

    With OVH, you 'can' report to CASL etc.. which probably we should do..
    Digital Ocean on the other hand.. no effort at all.

    But we have a lot of other very bad hosters out there. It used to be
    just bad VPS providers, but nowadays.. look at all the phishing attacks
    from Azure, Google, and Amazon..

    Seems everyone is simply just phoning their abuse in, and no
    accountability..

    That's what RBL's are for ;)
