I have been getting a few emails every week for quite some time now; which appear to be some kind of roundabout way of solicitations from supposedly young females. Most of them usually have a reference as though they found me on Facebook & emailed me because they miss me; or they liked my picture. Well, I have never even visited a Facebook Website; much less have any personal info that I'm aware of there. I always just delete them and block, or list as spam but they still keep coming. Funny thing is; I just noticed recently that their emails I receive through Yahoo; don't even have my username on them. They all use crazy kryptic user names for themselves; and me too! Like bhxxx345ert or whatever; and Yahoo's computer puts them in my mailbox! Just a while ago I thought I should go ahead finally and Click on one email link "see my nasty pictures" or something like that on all of them. Well my ISP provider (T-Mobile) stopped my browser immediately; and just said the address doesn't exist. They all have crazy email addresses just like their user names, so I thought it is a covert .com with many .com names that these girls or impersonators are using. They all use misc. symbols/charactors for making up partial anagrams so they can use foul language on the internet without breaking any codes of conduct. Since I didn't get to find out; I don't really know what they're up to; but all of them seem to have the same training; but all different web addresses. I found the IP address on the full header of the email. the email address is "BadGirl20" rreczgfnmvk@etezpbmsnmiy.com>: and it shows the return path of:<aisnzvrl@qtiigw.com> then IP 210.203.208. I let Yahoo know; but its a free account so I can't complain much. I just cannot comprehend how their system could direct any questionable Yahoo email usernames that just happen to start with the same letter as mine does, in my mailbox! That only narrows it down to maybe 250- 500 million people or so. Ha! Anyway, hope this info helps someone, sometime.

DNSBL* - is a list of IP addresses published through the Internet Domain Name Service (DNS) either as a zone file that can be used by DNS server software, or as a live DNS zone that can be queried in real-time. DNSBLs are most often used to publish the addresses of computers or networks linked to spamming; most mail server software can be configured to reject or flag messages which have been sent from a site listed on one or more such lists.
WHOIS** - is a query/response protocol that is widely used for querying databases in order to determine the registrant or assignee of Internet resources, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system number. WHOIS lookups were traditionally performed with a command line interface application, and network administrators predominantly still use this method, but many simplified web-based tools exist. WHOIS services are typically communicated using the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Servers listen to requests on the well-known port number 43.
** Approximate Geographic Location - This is NOT the exact geographical location of the person/organization with the given IP address. However, this should still give you a good idea about the area/region where this person/orgranization is located.
