#traplist — Public Fediverse posts

I can report that it actually rolled past 400,000 this Tuesday.

Fun or interesting in its own way, but not quite blogworthy. The sentiments expressed in the article about the 300,000 mark are still valid, though.

See https://nxdomain.no/~peter/traplist.shtml for latest updates. 408357 and counting.

For some reason I just looked up my now just over 2 year old piece "The Things Spammers Believe - A Tale of 300,000 Imaginary Friends" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/spammers_believe_in_300k_imaginary_friends.html (prettified, tracked https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2022/09/the-things-spammers-believe-tale-of.html) and realized that number will soon roll past the next big round marker. #spamtraps #traplist #spam #antispam #openbsd #pf #spamd #cybercrime #bottomfeeders #imaginaryfriends

Any friends ut there herding mail for .no domains, are you also getting an upsurge in bounces to addresses of the type no-$randomgarbage@$yourdomain.no (eg [email protected])?
