Auslogics Software logo used in spam

When spammers send their messages they try to hide their tracks by spoofing the From address in each message. Sometimes using valid domains or even real email addresses. In some cases they also try to gain credibility by using a brand, a logo or any other style of a real company.

In this case, the victim is the company Auslogics Software (http://www.auslogics.com/).

When looking at the spam it seems that they offer a whole branch of software products. But in fact this company offers software to speed up your computer, recovery and disc-and registry defrag tools.

The Auslogics logo is embedded with a complete URL directing to the Auslogics Software web site. The other images are taken from the Amazon web site.

Unfourtunatly, or luckely – depends how you look at it, the spammers didn’t complete their homework very well. A small mistake happened and the provided links contain http://{oemurl}/. It seems that the spammers have forgotten to include a real URL or that a content merge failed.
