[TYPO3-UG Oesterreich] Newsgroup-Spam aus Österreich

[Michael Stucki]

Hallo TUGA.

Falls jemand interessiert ist, dann leitet diese Warnung bitte an die
zuständige Person weiter.

Es geht darum, dass die ein Web-Interface auf unsere Newsgroups erstellt
haben, welches nun bereits von Spammern missbraucht wird (siehe Spam in
typo3.install.windows, typo3.english, typo3.projects.tt_products).

Ausserdem dürft ihr gerne noch anfügen, dass das Kontakt-Form irgendwie
nicht zu funktionieren scheint...

Thanks, Dmitry. I've seen this, but it doesn't have anything to do with
support.typo3.org at all.

The spam is coming from here: http://www.onscreen.at/newsgroups/

As it seems to me this is a TYPO3 agency who wanted to offer the newsgroup
interface as a service to their visitors. Haha...

Two days ago I have contacted them and asked to close down this website.
However, I got no response so far.

If there will be more spam then I will probably have to ask JH to block
their whole site at the firewall, since this seems to be the most effective
way.

We never had such a case until now. I would prefer to get a feedback from
OnScreen, but if the spam won't stop then I don't want to waste too much
time on fixing their problems...
