Spam Sites Found On The Net Every 3 Seconds

Filed in archive Spam News by Sue Walsh on April 17, 2008

In case you weren't sure if the amount of junk mail on the net is increasing, a new study from sophoslinks confirms it. According to the study, 92.3% of all email sent during the first three months of this year was spam. It also found that over 23,000 new spam sites were created during the same time period. That's roughly one every 3 seconds. There's also a new country joining the ranks as one of the top 5 spammers. Turkey has take over the number 3 spot. Russia and the good ol USA are still second and first, respectively. If the Internet is the information superhighway, spammers are the potholes, and like the real ones, they just never go away.
