• South America spam calls

  I received many telephone calls from South America. I know that the calls are from the South because I did a reverse phone number search.  Whenever they call, they have accents Indians, so I guess they're from the India.  When I tell them that I'm not interested because I know that everything is okay with my computer... they tend to argue & get cocky with me. It is noon & they called 3 times already. Should I report these calls & phone numbers in my local law enforcement? It happened for about a month now.  Thank you!

• SIP spam attack and MCU and vcs - e call

  as far as I know sip call spam attacks is done against the videoconference, connected with a public ip address, I disabled the sip but im not sure if my mcu and vcs - e with sound are vulnerable to them? they pose no threat to security for them? and if so, how? and what can we do about it?

  It is a well known problem and it affects H.323 and SIP, take a look at the below threads:

  https://supportforums.Cisco.com/discussion/12613681/attack-vcse

  There are many more discussions on this issue, the above, this is just a small selection. :)

  You do not need to disable SIP on the VCS-E, all you need to do is turn SIP UDP unless you need it for voice services.

  You can protect yourself by using a CPL on the VCS-E who will avoid calls to go through your MCU, or anything else you have sitting behind the VCS-E. This is assuming that you are using a combo of VCS-C/VCS-E, with the VCS - C behind a firewall and the VCS-E outside the firewall, for example in the demilitarized zone.

  Having just trouble ask points of termination or MCU sitting in nature with public IP addresses.

  These scans, moreover, mainly looking for systems that will allow them to make free international calls.

• Appeal of spam? your computer is infected with a virus

  I just got a phone call from a woman who herself identified as Support from Dell. She said that my computer has been infected by a virus. I hung up on the caller. Is this a spam call? My laptop is still under warranty. The phone number is 800-425-2067. Thank you.

• EX90 two autonomous with the public IP address can make video calls among them self on the Internet or not?

  Dear expert;

  I am very new to VCS and TP Cisco.

  We implement now presence Cisco TV with VCS - C, VCS-E TMS, TCS, MCUS and endpoints with Jabber in a single edit.

  and in another configuration CUCM 10.5, UCCX 10.5 IM & P, Jabber with some 10 officers.

  Now the question is in our building on the 2nd floor we have an EX90 and on the 5th floor an EX90 and on local network, we can make video calls using the IP address.

  In the same way is it possible to make a video call between 2 devices EX90 (both have public IP) present in a location different in the same city on the Internet without the participation of VCS - C and VCS-E.

  It's the client request :)

  Concerning

  Paiva

• Auto unwanted calls hit on my E Expressway

  Dear all,

  The unwanted automatic call hitting my E. Expressway from [email protected]/ * /.

  How can I avoid or block it so that this appeal will stop hiting on my EXP_E.

  Also suggest me if I want to block temporary external public VC call and how do I do this?

  Thanking you.

  It is a well known problem that has been raised repeatedly in recent years. Take a look at some of the threads in this thread: https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/12484441/hack-attack-vcs-express and this could be interesting:.

  https://supportforums.Cisco.com/discussion/12472426/rogue-calls-Expressway-e-can-they-be-blockeddropped

  In short, you can block these types of calls by a combination of CPL and search rules, the corresponding section in the Administrator's guide is referenced in some of the threads.

  You will not be able to stop these calls hit your E, but at least you can prevent these calls succeed, Yes, they will appear in the call log, but that's all.

  If you want to block all external calls, you will need to put behind a firewall and do not allow something external.

  Moreover, for calls SIP that you can prevent a large number of these calls by disabling SIP UDP, however, prevent the H.323 calls is not as simple as that.

• Why, all of a sudden I have a folder called Spam, full of stuff? How can I get rid of the things?

  All of a sudden I have a Spam folder and it is filled with "stuff", I don't have before and want to know how to get rid of the "stuff", I know I can remove the folder, but do not know if this is something I should do.

  Thunderbird does not use the word Spam or create a junk mail folder. Your e-mail provider.
  Just look in the folder and remove any message you want. Some spam filters are not that large to determine what is or is not spam and there could be some messages in there that you want to read or keep.
  It is not the end of the world. Simply sort the message in there.

  Fake phone calls to technical support

  Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.

  Please see:

  http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx .

  Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.

  These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.

• Question related to the spam/hoax calls

  I frequently receive phone calls from an Asian voice claiming to be Microsoft support widows. He claims to have detected the virus and all kinds of horrible things on my computer. It will ask then as I turn my computer on and wait until the home screen is visible. It then asks me to press some buttons, which, out of suspicion, I refuse to do. I'm wrong. And if so, what might happen.

  Thank you in anticipation

  Yes, you are right.

  It was a scam and with all the names and phone numbers, one who has
  become very frequent lately. See

  In addition to their money get on your part to do anything of any value,
  If you leave them in your computer, who knows what they were doing or where
  What confidential information they stole.

  So if you have done so, I highly recommend that you do both of the following
  immediately:

  1 do a clean reinstall of Windows.

  2. after reinstallation of Windows, change all your passwords.
  especially the banks or other
  financial sites.

• Yahoo Spam folder missing

  Hello

  I access my Yahoo email account via IMAP in Thunderbird and I try to configure junk e-mail settings. Yahoo has it's the spam goes into a folder called 'Spam' (that you cannot change), but Thunderbird is not to see this folder. I would like to have the mail folder junk/spam server Thunderbird and Yahoo be the same as that in this way if their filters add something in there I can see it without having to go through the web interface. Unfortunately I can't operate this way, though.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  Ok thank you. I wasn't sure if the "Bulk Mail" folder in TB is synchronized with the "Spam" folder online, so I wouldn't miss anything that ends up here.

• Receiver fake spam on Thunderbird myself.

  Turned on my computer at work and I get an avalanche of spam from my own email every minute Thunderbird checks for new emails. Each message is titled "MyFax message 'unknown' from - 3 page (s)" with at: [email protected]. It doesn't make sense as to why I get these emails if To: address is not my address and From: address is my address. I don't know what else I have avast home edition and wtf.

  I created for a filter to delete messages with when: is [email protected]. I also don't see anything extraordinary in the Task Manager.

  It is likely that someone is just abusing your email address and send to any e-mail in your name. If there is no such thing as the Envoy to address then the mail is not delivered and you get a message Mailor Daemon. This will probably be the first of what happens, you will know.

  What to do:
  Do not respond to one of these emails - delete them.
  Add your own personal signature to your emails and send an email to all your friends saying that someone was abusing your email address. Tell them that real e-mails on your part will always be the special signature, as shown in this e-mail. Apologize for any inconvenience and then always use the signature in your emails.

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/signatures

  Finally, they give up and stop using it especially if they do not get people responding.
  Make sure that you do not show your email address in forums etc. Tell friends and family to never send or e-mails to other people that contain your e-mail address - ask them to remove email address if transmission. People tend to 'humorous' of other friends email transmission without removing all e-mail addresses before you send, and you do not know where are these emails.

• How did the majority of my messages have prefix * SPAM * even if I have them in my address book?

  Most of my emails have started to come through with * SPAM * before the subject line. Where is this from-Thunderbird? It's more boring!

  It makes no difference if the sender is in my address book, or if I leave hidden content. And even if I'm on the subject, why should I allow content hidden each time?

  Best regards, Penny

  If you see the word 'Spam', then it is applied by the server (you will move to the coast server, but for minor irritations, it would be worth keeping) or you have installed a spam as Spam Assassin software and use it.
  Thunderbird does not 'Spam' add to any email.
  Thunderbird uses the term "Junk".

  Re, why should I leave the hidden content each time?
  Thunderbird takes your life private in return very seriuosly.
  Please read:
  https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/remote-content-in-messages
  http://KB.mozillazine.org/Privacy_basics_%28Thunderbird%29

  If you are certain that comes from the email, then you have a few options.
  When you see the message:
  "In order to protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message.
  There will be a 'Options' button to the right of the message.
  Click on the 'Options' button to see fall selections...

  To allow remote images in this email only:
  Select: "display remote content in this message.

  To information contained in all messages from this e-mail address:
  Select: "allow remote content to the e-mail address.

  If it is possible to permanently turn off this protection, it is not advisable. You can also change the e-mail addresses that you have selected as exceptions.
  «Select: Edit distance content "options «»

  It will open a small window called Options
  In the upper part of the "content of Mail."
  To turn off permanently:
  Select: "allow remote content in messages.

  To check the exceptions list, click on the top of the page content of Mail 'Exceptions' button

  If you make changes remember to click the OK buttons.

• Thunderbird can my ISP what is spam?

  Thunderbird and my ISP have spam filters. It would be really nice if Thunderbird could provide feedback to the ISP on what I think, it's spam. In other words, when I called a message as spam, Thunderbird sends the message and the designation of spam to the SpamFilter ISP. (As different ISPs use different anti-spam filters, this aspect should be done somehow universally so that ISP filters by different developers can use this information.)

  There are two advantages to this. First, it would allow me to train the filter of the ISP so that less spam reaches me. Secondly, assuming that the SpamFilter ISP uses messages of all users to determine what is spam (rather than on a per-user basis), it would allow customers to the ISP define together what is spam, which reduces spam by most all an individual user could do.

  Thank you.

  If you are using an IMAP e-mail account, then your choice of spam is sent to your email through the movement of the mail provider in the SPAM folder. Unfortunately not all providers have left of the 20th century still only offer a pop POP access is not interactive and does not know there is anything on a server, but an Inbox that must be downloaded.
