Spam Never Stops

 What a busy day dealing with spam
and ya know, one loves to learn.  
After reading the 'View Message
Source' I have found some interesting 
information!  SMTP information 
about abuse.  So the past few days 
I have  been sending them some
of the spam I have been receiving.  
Today they requested that I send 
photos of the 'View Message Source'
of some of the spam that I have been 
getting.  So I grouped them per IP 
addresses and what I was seeing 
from the massive 7,712 spams
from last year.  

For those of you that don't know 
where to find the 'View Message
Source'  it's can be found in the 
upper right hand corner ---, click 
on the --- and open the 'View Message
Source.'   You can find lots of interesting 
information on the spam email.  IP 
addresses were what I was mainly
going for but I have learned it's
the SMTP information of origin is
what can help when going to the 
abuse desks of companies listed. 
I have also notice that some 
of the spammers use companies 
that are just priceless.  

Spammers make up IP address and
emails!  I can tell you I have 8 books
of spam information from all I have 
gotten.  One starts seeing a pattern 
and yes, you can look up IP addresses.

Just pure 'Harrassment!'  GasLighting!

What gets me is Microsoft accounts
are being used to do their spamming. 
So after a nice chat with copilot yesterday 
who offer some tech information to me.  
I'd like to share:

When you open the 'View Message 
Source'  you can ctrl A to select it all, 
ctrl C to copy, then go to the forward
to forward the email, once you do that 
you can ctrl V to paste it in the message
area.  Then you can find the company's
name and file an abuse claim.  If you 
find it's coming from let's say Google 
they will tell you to go back to the --- and 
click on it, when it opens go down to the 
block sender and click on that. 

There are also Rules in the top bar mid 
center in which one can add to stop 
spammers.  A good rule is simple so go 
after the Headings and email address.
My advice is to record them!  I have in 
my books their Email Header, IP
 Address and Emails recorded.
Keep it simple is the rule of the game.

If you get an email Google Calendar
invite or request for payment.  Record
the information and block them!
Do not click or respond or make payments.

I also watch here as to which countries 
show up on the blog sight, it will just 
floor you at the numbers. This is different 
than actual visits which I actually 
track in my monthly counts.  I Thank 
these folks but it's not what my blog
is about!  The key to education
is what unlocks or locks the doors.

With this said for those of you that
spam, stupidity can't be fixed, so if 
you are being spammed record and 
protect yourself.  Those of you out 
there that use other companies beware.

One can also report concerns also. 
----- Report concerns and file a report.  
File a report!!  One doesn't have to 
put up with this abuse or harassment.

If you didn't request the information
 --- report it.
If you didn't give them permission to
send you emails   ----  Report it.

Most big companies have abuse desks
and they need the information from
 the 'View Message Source.'

After an update, I noticed that 
my virus program had added a
file to my email box.   So I took 
all the spam and dumped them 
into this box and when I did the 
pop up stated they would no longer 
be going into the junk file.
It also makes them easier to block.

It's just time to block all spams after
sending off the report.

Does Anyone Know These People or Vehicle?


 







Yes, our cameras work!  We have 6 videos
on what they were doing.  The east resident
from our home also have cameras so they
too should have video of them in their pink 
recycle bin.

This is what we caught on our cameras 
12/9/2025-2:50 am to 3:29 am, then
headed north into Westmoor 2 when 
leaving our area.

As we watch this vehicle cruise the
hood before coming down to go though 
recycle bins.  Sorry no recycle bottles,
cans or pop bottles will be found in 
our recycle bin.

Yes, this was reported. We will be 
turning on the sirens that come with
our cameras.

As stated in VMC 6.12.216, scavenging
of recyclables (or solid waste) is against
the law. A person must ask the homeowner 
for permission before removing recyclables 
from a container. If you see someone taking 
recyclables, please call 3-1-1 and report it 
as a "theft of recyclables." If the person
is using a vehicle, please write down the 
license plate number and a description 
of the vehicle. Always exercise caution 
and consider your personal safety. Do not 
confront the individual.

December Shinning!

 











Just half way done!  Shine On!!


























































We currently have 2,000 LED solar lights on 
the house.  

This evening around 5 pm I was checking to
see if all the lights were on and looked to 
the east to see the red, white and blue light
from one of the planes coming in.  The 
flight path is usually north of us a few 
blocks but this plane wasn't on the path
as it flew right over the house!  Love it!!

With the storm coming in for the next
few days the lights will be faint or not
at all!  Got to love the solar lights!
