THE UNCOVEROR HAS BEEN JOE JOBBED
If you have gotten spammed from an address ending in @uncoveror.com, I did not
send it. My domain has been hijacked by spammers. As a result, I have received
hundreds of bounced back undeliverable messages I never sent, and am having a
hard time sifting through them to find my real mail. I have two real email
address, news@, and webmaster@. Anything else is a fake one created by the
spammers. I used to have secrets@, but it was bombed with spam so badly that I
could never find my real mail.
This kind of hijacking is known as a Joe Job, named after the time Joe's
Cyberpost had its domain hijacked by spammers. Joe Doll had nothing to do with
it, but was bombed with hate mail from people who thought he did, and his
website was off-line for a time. Here is a Wikipedia article about it. I know of
no sure solution to this other than hoping the spammers will move on before @uncoveror.com
becomes a blacklisted domain, or I go off-line. If anyone can help find out who
did this so they can be criminally prosecuted without us breaking any laws, I
would really appreciate the help.
In closing, I had nothing to do with it if you were spammed by some address
ending in @uncoveror.com. My domain name is being used unlawfully by spammers.
Still, I apologize for any inconvenience. I hope to get past this, and back to
my usual journal of parody, political satire and outrageous farce as soon as
possible.
Sincerely
Matthew Brown
Publisher and Webmaster of Uncoveror.com
