[apnic-talk] Morons in the APNIC region
We have a saying here in the United States: "You can't fix stupid".
Recently, I received a spam from 101.100.238.168 which is being routed
at present by AS58621, Vodien Internet Solutions Pte Ltd (Singapore).
I did what I always do. I reported the spam to the formally registered
contact email address for the relevant ASN. In this case that is
<abuse@dreamscapenetworks.com>. I got back the response below, informing
me that the network operators could neither accept nor apparently even
look at my report because my email address is not registered as one of
their customers.
That is correct. I am NOT one of their customers. I was reporting spam
that was SENT by one of their customers.
Is APNIC instructing network operators in the APNIC region to use their
formally registered abuse reporting addresses as some sorts of customer
support email addresses? Oe are these particular network operators just
blithering idiots who have failed to read and understand simple instructions?
