I think all spammers can be sentenced to death (calm down)

'It's not that much of a problem now, but next year'SPIT'will be a big problem.' Christopher J. Rouland, CTO of Internet Security Systems (ISS), explained at a media briefing on July 20th.
It doesn't cost a phone bill ... If it's IP phones of the same type.
SPIT is an abbreviation of 'SPAM over IP Telephony' and is spam (advertising, solicitation, etc.) using IP phones (related article). 'Unlike (email) spam, technical countermeasures are difficult. There are no countermeasure products at this time,' Rouland said. 'Although various countermeasure technologies have been developed for email spam, there is almost no SPIT,' said Masakazu Takahashi, executive security analyst at Internet Security Systems.
Also, spammers may move to SPIT because SPIT is more “effective” than spam. This is because 'telephones are more emotional than emails' (Mr. Takahashi). 'For example, if you leave a message saying'Call me here because an emergency has occurred', many users will call you wondering what to do. Use such a message to go to a pay program. A SPIT that makes you make a phone call is conceivable. '
Or rather, is there an example of SPIT itself in Japan ...? I did some research. It seems that the Nikkei area has begun to make noise around June of this year, but it seems that examples have been around for a long time ...

IP phone spam?
The other day, the lamp that informs the answering machine message of my telephone was lit.
I was surprised. Because, for some reason, our landline phone is restricted to making only outgoing calls, so unless you make a call with an IP phone number, you will not receive an incoming call. However, neither of them gave this number to anyone other than their parents' homes.

When I suspiciously replayed it, the content was like this ...

Press any button to listen again.
Crunchy dating spam!
I hadn't expected it before, but this is likely to be a new source of problems. This is because IP phones are free of charge between affiliated carriers. In other words, no matter how many such indiscriminate spam advertising calls are made, the trader will not hurt at all ...
Of course, unlike email, it's not efficient enough to send in large quantities at once, but I was shocked to find that there was no such spam over the phone.
It seems that it will surface soon ... I'm angry ...
So, I wonder if this will be the oldest IP phone spam in Japan, 'SPIT' ...? I'm also surprised at the vendors who try this kind of thing immediately before that. What about their new information sensitivity sensor ...
