Current Status

This blog is not frequently updated because most case-by-case scam reports are now listed in subordinate blogs. At this point in time, most of my efforts are targeted at documenting employment scams in the Suckers Wanted blog.

Job Scam: riverpartners.net

The rats behind the "River Partners" job scam have switched domains from "river-partners.net" (documented earlier) to "riverpartners.net". See a spam sample (or two) at Suckers Wanted. As usual, only one of the nameservers is respondong to requests. The results of the query can be seen below for reference, bearing in mind that the very small "time to live" values mean that this data will become obsolete rapidly.
