Joe job
Online, a joe job is a spam attack using spoofed sender data and aimed
at tarnishing the reputation of the apparent sender and/or induce the
recipients to take action against him (see also e-mail spoofing). For
a related phenomenon that is not targeted directly at a particular
victim, see backscatter of email spam.

Origin and motivation
The name "joe job" originated from such a spam attack on Joe Doll,
webmaster of Joe's Cyberpost.[1] One user had his joes.com account
removed for advertising through spam; in retaliation, he sent another
spam, but with the "reply-to" headers forged to make it appear to be
from Joe Doll.[2] Besides prompting angry replies, it also caused
joes.com to fall prey to denial-of-service attacks that took the
website down temporarily.

Like the original, most e-mail joe jobs are acts of revenge, whether
by individuals or by organizations that also use spam for other
purposes. Unless the joe-jobber is a business trying to defame a
competitor or a spammer trying to harm the reputation of an anti-spam
group or filtering service, there is no commercial use for joe
jobbing. Therefore, it is a comparatively uneconomical form of spam,
unless an additional aim is to advertise within the email body, and
mail replies are not what the spammer is after. Joe job attacks in
other media are often motivated politically or through personal
enmity.

Form
Joe jobs usually look like normal spam, although they might also
disguise themselves as other types of scams or even as legitimate (but
misdirected) messages.

Joe jobbing (or "joeing") can take different forms, but most incidents
involve either e-mail or Usenet. They are sometimes seen on instant
messaging systems as well. In general, joe jobbing is seen only on
messaging systems with weak or no sender authentication, or where most
users will assume the purported sender to be the actual one.

If the joe-jobber is imitating a normal spam, it will simply advertise
the victim's product, business or website. It may also claim that the
victim is selling illegal or offensive items such as illegal drugs,
automatic weapons or child pornography to increase the likelihood that
the recipient will take action against the victim.

Some joe jobs are politically motivated, where the intended victim is
usually a political candidate, party or organization. Such joe jobs
generally espouse an inflammatory viewpoint not actually held by the
victim, or present a deliberately distorted variation of an actual
viewpoint. Large-scale joe jobs were staged on Usenet against the
Ralph Nader campaign in 2000 and 2004. The second of these was unusual
in employing multiple phases —the first a conventional political joe
job, the second claiming to be a widely spammed and similarly
inflammatory statement by the Nader campaign about the first.[citation

When imitating a scam, such as a Nigerian scam, or phishing scheme,
the e-mail will still feature links to the victim's website or include
contact information. In these instances, the joe-jobber is hoping that
the recipient will notice the e-mail is fake, but mistakenly think the
victim is behind the "scam".

When imitating a legitimate e-mail, the joe job will usually pose as
an order confirmation. These "confirmations" may ask for credit card
information, in which event the attack differs from phishing only in
intent, not methodology, or simply imply that the recipient has
already bought something from the store (leading the recipient to fear
his credit card has already been charged). Like the "normal spam"
jobs, these e-mails will often mention illegal activities to incite
the recipient to angry e-mails and legal threats.

Another joe-job variation is an e-mail claiming that the victim offers
a "spam friendly" web host or e-mail server in the hope of further
inciting action against the victim by anti-spam activists.

How it works
Joe jobs often intend to capitalize on general hatred for spam. They
usually forge "from" addresses and email headers so that angry replies
are directed to the victim. Some joe job attacks adopt deliberately
inflammatory viewpoints, intending to deceive the recipient into
believing they were sent by the victim. Joe job victims may lose
website hosting or network connectivity due to complaints to their
Internet service providers, and even face increased bandwidth costs
(or server overload) due to increased website traffic. The victim may
also find his or her email blacklisted by spam filters.

Unlike most email spam, the victim does not have to "fall for" or even
receive the email in question; the perpetrator is using innocent third
parties to fuel what essentially amounts to slander combined with a
denial of service attack.
