[LINK] Spam Patterns

[Roger Clarke]

Preparing to visit several people in the security area of Cambridge 
Uni Computer Labs, I visited the Security Group blog for the first 
time.  (Shame on me!).

The current lead-article, by one of the people I'm going to meet 
with, Rochard Clayton, is this:
http://www.lightbluetouchpaper.org/2007/04/03/there-arent-that-many-serious-spammers-any-more/
incl.
" ... the incoming spam is not composed of lots of individual spam 
gangs, each doing their own thing and thereby generating a fairly 
steady amount of spam from day to day. Instead, it is clear that very 
significant volumes of spam is being sent by a very small number of 
gangs ... ".
