We have had an increase in a spammer co-opting list address to send pharmacy spam. I'm the only reader of it. All it does is create a lot of rejected posting to my list as the spammer tries to brute force a login and a post.

It's suggested here to be a Canadian pharmacy scam http://scamfraudalert.wordpress.com/2009/09/02/canadian-pharmacy-spam-ng-systems-net/  and I have been getting a lot of pharmacy related spam in my email lists. I normally ignore this type of activity, but this one seems excessive.

I've inquired with the underlying hosting companies about the domain myvzw.com  Registered by www.markmonitor.com<http://www.markmonitor.com/>, hosted by Verizon and servint.net
