Finding new customers in an over-saturated market is tougher than ever. Ask any pornographer. That’s why the weak-minded turn to spamming. But the junkmail biz doesn’t enjoy the simplicity of days of yore.
Anti-spam equipment has combined with the Law and ever-smarter endusers to turn garbage-peddling into something closely akin to real work. Hence, the need for spam zombies.
As you know, thanks to loosely managed networks and looser endusers, zillions of personal computers across the planet have been converted into anonymous spam servers, without the permission or knowledge of the owners. And boy, are these servers for sale… Totally below board, of course.
Since it’s all illegal, how do bad guys hook up? It’s easy… if you know the secret code phrase: “fresh proxies”. Try googling it. Just don’t click on the links. Many dump a virus to your computer, converting you from part of the Solution to part of the Problem.
