Revenue Irish Tax & Customs Emails

February 26th, 2010 by admin

We are getting  a lot of calls to the office this week asking about the following email that many people are getting. It is s scam, delete it, these people know that many people in Ireland are claiming more tax back etc

Scam Email = Delete.

If you do get an email like this just look at the location of the link that the image will bring you too. It will be a strange website address that hopefully google will have blocked by now.

My advice is to delete then call us to set up a spam filter for your email so these type of emails are not slowing down your business day. You are busy enough without having to deal with this type of confusing email.

Call Cada Media Ltd on 053 9430748 and talk to Dave Jordan about setting up a spam filters for your staff email today.

December 1st, 2009 by admin

You have just received a virtual postcard from a friend ! Spam Virus

Do Not Open the link on this email

Unless every person I  know has a friend suddenly sending them postcards from the edge ( of reason) I would strongly advise NOT to open or click on the link in the above email subject titled:

You have just received a virtual postcard from a friend !

it could be a recently warned against virus that will attck you computer and cause you untold misery just beforeChristmas.

the general rule with strange or unusual emails:

delete them. If you don’t know who it’s from just delete it. If its a bonafide email the person sending it to you will contact you again by phone or some other way – for eg a normal email with a persons name and information…

your mailbox has been deactivated

November 17th, 2009 by admin

If you have received an email in the past 2 days from us telling you that you that your mailbox has been deactivated please note that this is not actually from ourselves, but rather an atempt by a spam bot to penetrate our new servers. The attachment mail is a text file letting you know that the .exe and .zip attachment with the email has been removed from your email.

We suspect that this went out to about 2,000 email addresses.

Your Email is fine, the fact that you got the mail is proof that it is not in fact “deactivated” but if you need any clarification please don’t hesitate in calling the office to confirm.

Spam Filtering Control Panel

November 4th, 2009 by admin

We have been supplying spam filters to our clients for a long time now, but since the global recession has kicked in we’ve seen a huge increase in the volumes of spam going through of servers, eating the band width and consuming huge processing time, not to mention squatting on Gigabytes of our server space.

Because of this we have been working on creating a product to help our clients and to help ourselves on the amount of administration that it is taking each day to help clear valid emails and block unwanted ones.

spam-filter3Self Service is the norm these days in supermarkets, petrol stations and now in email filtering systems, allowing our clients log into their own Email Filtering Control Panel and manage emails they need to receive and leave the ones that could contain a virus or spam that will waste their valuable time.

Once they log into our secure system, the menu system allows the user to tweak their email filter to make it strong or to allow certain emails through or IP addresses. The great think about this is that it really puts the keys back in the administrators hands. You can create and update White Lists and Black Lists to suit your needs.

If youspam-filter6 have an email that has been sent you but the spam filter has blocked it then you can log in, view it in the log of stopped emails and click on “release” and it will be pushed into your inbox as normal in a few minutes.

How to set up Spam Filtering ?

Basically just get in touch and if you are an existing client or if you not a client of ours and your website is hosted on another server just get your web designer or administrator of your domain name to make your MX Records point towards our filters. The MX records should be setup as follows:

spam-filter9
Priority 10 = mx1.spamfilters.ie
Priority 20 = mx2.spamfilters.ie
Priority 30 = mx3.spamfilters.ie
Priority 40 = mx4.spamfilters.ie
Priority 50 = mx5.spamfilters.ie
Priority 60 = mx6.spamfilters.ie
Priority 70 = mx7.spamfilters.ie

As you can see the filtering get passed through more filtration sessions than a good whiskey, so image how great the results are on your inbox. These sessions are powerful servers that are updated and kept running 24/7 to examine the origin of emails,  see where they are being sent from, look and see if they are all being sent from the same IP address or computer. Often a pc can get a virus and it turns that PC into a Virus Sending Server. Our servers notice these type of emails and we block those dodgy emails before they arrive on your door.

spam-filter7

The Control Panel lets you see exactly the amount of email we block each hour, To start email filtering your mail and stop the crap being delivered to your inbox and your staff’s inbox then call myself Dave Jordan and we can start clearing your email today.

Spam email on the increase!

February 16th, 2009 by admin

We have noticed that we are getting more and more requested from companies asking us to help remove their spam from their inboxes. Staff are wasting time each morning and afternoon going through up to 100 emails per day selling online drugs to relationship advice! (some are similar !)

Not only is this wasting time, but you as the owner of the business are also putting yourself in a legal situation with respect to the content you are making them view by asking them to use your company email. Does it say it in your employee contract? Nope! Most people overlook it.

Anyway . . We have the solution for your Spam Filter and Anti Virus Needs. Call Dave Jordan on 053-9430748 to more help and advice.

Phishing Alert

July 16th, 2008 by admin

What is Phishing? This is when a website is set up similar to a famous site and invites you to log in and update your details. Many Banks in ireland have had problems whereby someone has set up a website with a similar or mis-spelt domain that looks like the real address.

Real businesses do not contact you and ask you to update your details online. The method if like “Fishing”, they are just chancing their luck to see if they get a bite.

Delete these type of emails

Spam Spike

May 23rd, 2008 by admin

We have had a number of calls asking about certain email addresses getting over 250 Emails in one go. This have been reported on two domains and we are looking into it.

One quick search on the net today shows that this is a current problem this week and the origin of many of these spams are from eastern block countries.

Emails come in as if the client was the sender and says they are being “Returned to Sender”

Delete and Ignore.
