Russian Business Network is responsible for hosting Web sites that carry out a major portion of the world's cybercrime and profiteering. Google Bloggers were target'd in the most recent attack, and the hacking continues to your Email.

Is this type of attack going to End ???
NOPE !! Read on ...

Your Email has been targeted in Future Attacks !

Email with these Subject lines link to Trojan's :

"A fresh New Year"
"As the New Year..."
"As you embrace another New Year" "Blasting New Year"
"Happy 2008"
"It's the new year"
"Joyous new year"
"New Hope and New Beginnings"
"New Year Ecard"
"New Year Postcard"
"Opportunities for the New Year"
"Happy New Year to You"
"Happy New Year to (email address)"
"Lots of greetings on the New Year"
"New Year Wishes for You."

What's the BEEF ???

The Russian Business Network sells Web site hosting to people engaged in criminal activity, the security experts say. Groups operating through the company's computers are thought to be responsible for about half of last year's incidents of "phishing" ID theft scams in which cybercrooks use e-mail to lure people into entering personal and financial data at fake commerce and banking sites.

The company "is literally a shelter for all illegal activities, be it child pornography, online scams, piracy or other illicit operations," Symantec analysts wrote in a report. "It is alleged that this organized cyber crime syndicate has strong links with the Russian criminal underground as well as the government, probably accomplished by bribing officials." It specializes in offering Web sites that will remain reachable on the Internet regardless of efforts to shut them down by law enforcement officials so-called bulletproof hosting.

The Domain Names Used Are :

MERRYCHRISTMASDUDE.COM
UHAVEPOSTCARD.COM
HAPPYCARDS2008.COM

It appears this was not the 1st attack, but one of many.

Because of this so-called bulletproof hosting, law officials can not shut them down !


What can Google do ?

Give us a script for our templates, that warn's my users that the links I am giving out will direct them out of the United States. Let Google decide if the link is safe or not. If they are not safe, send an alert to our readers. If everything is okay, just drop the user of to my link.

They are certainly capable of this !

I would gladly add it into my template if such a thing existed. Although this site did not link to anything like this, I could of easily became a victim of circumstance myself like hundreds of my fellow Bloggers.

I was also able to learn that this operation is not run by just one person, but many people. I was also able to learn there is more than one location involved.

They are "DUGG" in to stay, and at the present time, the internet is "FREE GAME" to future attacks.


Prepare yourself !
