MailChimp Update (Was Re: MailChimp with link to javascript/zip malware)

["Anne P. Mitchell Esq." <am...@isipp.com>]

MailChimp has said that they believe that they have terminated all accounts that were responsible for this.  BUT, they say, this is a group that keeps cropping up (think whack-a-mole), so to please report any more of these that anyone receives.

They did not respond to the key problems: they still allow their systems to host zipped malware, they allow their clients to upload it, they allow the delivery of mass mail with a link to their hosted malware. These three problems are still in place. Stopping specific clients will not prevent future damage. Finally, the recipients who are now dealing with the MailChimp-hosted ramsomware should class-action against it, and make MailChimp pay through the nose.
