Press Release: Ipswitch Warns That Spam Continues To Rise

...Messaging Expert Warns That Over Two Thirds Of Email Is Now Unsolicited Spam...

Ipswitch Inc., a leading developer of network management, messaging and file transfer solutions, today announced the results of its fifth Spamometer survey, revealing that 70% of all email received is spam. This compares with 62% the previous quarter and only 57% over the Christmas period. The increase is shown to be down to a massive rise in phishing emails, the inherently dangerous spam messages asking the recipient to supply personal information that can lead to identity theft.
