Festi in the rest of the top Turkish 7 SpamRankings.net 2012-08 CBL data

We’ve already looked at TTNET, which pushed Turkey Turkey to the top of the spamming world in July 2012, and KOCNET, ditto in August. What about other Turkish ASNs? The next five are AS 12735 ASTURKNET, AS 12978 DOGAN-ONLINE, AS 16135 TURKCELL, AS 29179 KIBRISONLINE-AS, and AS 8517 ULAKNET, in the August SpamRankings.net from both CBL and PSBL data. You guessed it: they’re all infested with Festi botnet, too.

SuperOnline dropped off May 2012 Turkey top 10 SpamRankings.net

Congratulations to Turkcell SuperOnline‘s AS 34104 GLOBAL 64,658 for dropping off of the top 10 spamming ASN’s for Turkey in the May 2012 SpamRankings.net!

It was replaced in the Turkish top 10 by academic network ULAKNET‘s AS 8517, which had previously dropped off the April rankings.

Perpetual winner and still champion for spewing spam from Turkey is TTNET‘s AS 9121, accounting for almost 3/4 of all spam seen from Turkey seen by CBL. SpamRankings.net saw about the same proportion of Turkish spam coming from TTNET in data from PSBL.
