Spam tops 85% of email on six days last month, largely from a massive surge in Russian Medical spam. That and more in the latest Global Spam Threat Report.
PRLog - Jun. 18, 2014 - ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- After a nearly two-week lull in global spam, a huge Russian / Medical campaign hit hard, helping push spam levels above 85% of all incoming email on six days during the month.
Russian / Medical spam typically involves offers for prescription drugs (like Viagra, Cialis, etc.) and online pharmacies that take you to Russian web sites (.ru and .su) if you click the link in the email. Don't do it.
