Spam in February 2012

In the month of February, spammers continued with their January mass-

mailings devoted to St Valentine’s Day. The numbers of unsolicited valentines

peaked on February 12 at 0.2% of all spam messages. In English-language

spam, messages emerged offering Easter presents and holiday symbols.

Interestingly, we have observed an English-language mass-mailing that

exploited the date of March 8, or the International Women’s Day, which

isn’t a popular holiday in English-speaking countries. Curiously, the fair sexes

were offered “male-only” pills as a present.

Over the period in question, 2.8% of all e-mail contained malicious fi les,

which is 1.5% lower than last month. For the second month in a row, the

United States topped the list of countries with most mail antivirus detections,

although the number for the US has declined slightly compared to January.

Russia has left the Top 10 of countries with most Kaspersky Mail Antivirus

detections, giving its place to Brazil. India has moved from the 4th to the

6th place after losing some 1.5% and being overtaken by Germany.
