Hey Guys: Just receive following today, wonder how trillions of address only worth 2000USD:): Hi, We are media company specializing in PPC and high-traffic campaigns. For our email operations we are looking to lease a IPv6 space. We guarantee that our marketing operation does not generate any complaints. If you have a /29 or few /32 available that you could lease then let me know. Since IPv6 is experimental I am willing to pay up to $400 for a /32 lease on which I will test 4-5 days. If testing is successful, I will take 2x /32 space and commit to use minimum 6-month. Payment will be like this: 1st month = $2000 x 1 /32s 2,3,4 month = $1500 5,6 month = $1100 Let me know. -- -- Kind regards. Lu This transmission is intended solely for the addressee(s) shown above.

Hi Lu, I think the message is a hoax... it costs less to open an LIR and use a /29 for at least a year. cheers, elvis On 23/01/14 21:06, Lu Heng wrote:

Hi Elvis, Sadly this is not a hoax ... As the renting person isn't mentioned in the registry .. And that is their goal ... They want to abuse the space and move on ... Erik Bais Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPad Op 23 jan. 2014 om 21:43 heeft Elvis Velea <elvis@velea.eu> het volgende geschreven:

Financially very good point, But I believe, RIPE (and/or other RIRs) requests more official documents and signed contract! And spammers may prefer to keep themselves uncaught. -----Original Message----- From: anti-abuse-wg-bounces@ripe.net [mailto:anti-abuse-wg-bounces@ripe.net] On Behalf Of Elvis Velea Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2014 9:44 PM To: anti-abuse-wg@ripe.net Subject: Re: [anti-abuse-wg] So now spam on v6?

Hi guys: Sharing this email here for two reasons 1. It's so funny someone would pay 2000usd for a trillion address. 2. IPv6 already being spammed? How we going to stop it? Block whole /29? Wonder if there is already a good technical solution to this. Kind regards Lu

Well, if this is *not* a hoax (or some clueless crackpot still thinking in terms of IPv4), then this is actually a good sign :-) It would imply that there are enough IPv6-enabled delivery points already to make spam campaines over v6 commercially feasable. Although - if this is not a crackpot - it may at the same time be an indication that many shops do not have basic safeguards for v6 in place yet. Interesting, Wilfried
