Spamhaus Statistics : The Top 10 Worst Spammers

Up to 80% of spam targetted at Internet users in North America and
Europe is generated by a hard-core group of around 200 known
professional spam gangs whose names, aliases and operations are
documented in Spamhaus' Register Of Known Spam Operations (ROKSO) database.

This TOP 10 chart of ROKSO-listed spammers is based on those Spamhaus
views as the highest threat, the worst of the career spammers causing
the most damage on the Internet currently. Spamhaus flags these as a
priority for Law Enforcement Agencies.

The world's worst spammers and spam gangs this week are:
