Last week, the security team at Return Path discovered that we were the =
source of a list of addresses used in a targeted phishing attack against =
a number of ESPs. We're sharing the results of our investigation with =
the larger community, in order to help others avoid similar attacks.
I'm including NANOG in this distribution because, even though this =
particular attack was focused on mail operators, the same tactics could =
work equally well on network operators.
