Crowdsourcing for spammers

30.7.2008 von Benny Patock.

Aaaah… what wouldn’t we do for some cleavage? I read an article on German news authority Heise recently on how spammers use p0rn to get new gmail-accounts (et al.). Every sign-up there is secured by a captcha, which makes the mass-setup of new email-addresses nearly impossible…. at least for machines… well at least for most of them.

So here is the trick: Crowdsource the process to horny men. It’s cheap and easy. Just show some random p0rn pic and ask kindly to solve a captcha to see the next. (Think trumpet horn here.) Clever suns of a gun… huh?
