I just saw a #spam / #scam email that looks like it's linking to content on #IPFS, via a web gateway.

That's a pretty clever way to host your crap, honestly. Just pop some boxes and have them host content on IPFS. No need for forwarding ports and it's available on clearnet for victims to click on.

Plus, the URL looks like it's cloudflare (and for all I know it may actually be them), so all those products who pass judgement on domains based on how old they are and all that, they fall flat on their face.

I mean, that strategy usually falls flat on its face, but usually it is because attackers just register a recently expired domain that had a good reputation. It's a pretty standard and reliable bypass for all those crap #security products.

I'm just entertained to see something in the wild that shows the #scammers have figured out this trick.
