The Government has offered Australia's three mobile operators, and vividwireless, renewal of their existing spectrum allocated on 15 year licences in the late 90s and early 2000s at set prices, while the Government expects to rake in $3 billion.
In a second Twitter-related spam attack during May,
Symantec says Twitter dating site Datetwit was targeted, with various
recently registered spam domains used in the links, and leading users
to enter Twitter credentials to open the dating site.
In an attempt to evade anti-spam filters, says
Symantec, email messages were obfuscated with legitimate content, and
it makes the point that with these attacks, spammers hope that they can
lure recipients into action by hiding behind the reputation of the
Twitter social networking brand.
As for the US auto market, Symantec says that spam messages claiming to
come from a particular motor company mention falling sales due to the
economic downturn and includes details about how the United States
government plans to bail them out.
According to Symantec, since the supposed bailout funds had yet to
reach the auto manufacturers, the spam message – squarely aimed at
consumers looking to buy a new vehicle - had indicated that the
companies were offering 1,000 automobiles discounted at 35 percent off
the original price.
The poor sucker getting this apparently great offer was told that the
sale would help the company bounce back and increase their customer
base, and they were instructed to fill out and submit an attached form
to take advantage of the offer, with a company representative to visit
them within five business days after receiving the form!
