I’m seeing a lot of spambot activity on sites from many IPTelligent.com IPs all day. This network is apparently well known for it and seems to house a bot farm that pushes out form-filling bots all over the place. Blocking ranges 96.47.224.1/255.255.255.0 , 96.47.225.1/255.255.239.0 and 173.44.37.1/255.255.255.0 seems to stop it, but it should be done data center wide, IMHO.
Hello,
Please raise a support ticket with your domain name(s) on which you have seen spambot activity from these ip ranges. We’ll check it and will do the needful asap to stop it.
I sent a log file from today’s hits. It’s still happening frequently. See
Ticket ID: IWX-11620-631
We are working on it and will update you back on your ticket.
WE really can’t block those datacenter wide but looking at what we can do for serverl level.
