Here we will take a look how spammers able to send email from your email address at which the email address owner don’t even know that the email has been sent from the email address.
Spammer send an email which containing either link to the webpage at which the virus has been waiting for request from some client, or an email attachments with virus infected files or document. When any email recipient open the email and open the attachment which has virus or go to the link which is on email so then virus will infect the specific computer of the particular email recipient. This virus used to capture the contacts from the address book of recipient, and send it to the spammer.
When spammer gets an address book at the same time this virus send email to eachother contacts from the address book. The whole scene i am describing you with steps now.
- Suppose “A” is the email recipient and “B” and “C” are the contacts on “A”‘s address book.
- If “A” infected by the virus then virus capture the address book at which “B” and “C” also get an email from each other because in the feild of “From:” virus put up the email address of “B”‘s where “C” is the recipient of email.
- Same process then begin with the “B” and “C” where then virus search contacts on “B”‘s and “C”‘s address book.
- As you can see “B” and “C” don’t know each other but getting emails from eachother’s mail address, Only because both are in “A”‘s contact list which is infected by the virus.
And then those contacts think that the email has been send by the email address which is totally stranger and unknown for the email recipients.
This process will go on and on and spammer will able to deliver the spam email to thousands of contact In short time.
