I have tried repeatedly by private email directly to Verizon and I have contacted an ex-UUnet employee, but so far, it would appear that Verizon is running an unattended and unmaintained "spam reporting" system with emails like this:

For questions about these reports please email: email_report () lists verizonbusiness com NOTE: there is no need to acknowledge these reports, the email address: email_report () lists verizonbusiness com is purely for questions.

The following spam message was received at Thu, 05 Jun 2008 17:03:01 +0300

IP: x.x.1.242
TIMESTAMP: Thu, 05 Jun 2008 17:03:01 +0300

Problem is they are basing who to send the spam report on an email address that was changed in whois about 2 years ago and it would appear no one is home to update their "spam reporting" database.

Is anyone here from Verizon who can reach out to the people sending these emails to have them fix their database?

Thanks,
Hank




Yes.. Send me your details (IP/ASN/ORG ID) and I'll have someone update the db.
