But I found an e-mail address on one of the sites that's Austrian. The sites are built to look like legitimate sites, with text on the front page. Then a long list of internal links on the second page. Same for the third pages. Then directory pages with Google ads on the fourth level pages. I haven't figured out the scheme yet. But many of these sites switch content after a while, so that's not all that unusual. Yeah, the IP address is German. But I found an e-mail address on one of the sites that’s Austrian.

I had to get some sleep when I saw this starting to come in so had to leave it. I'll be sending off abuse mails. Also seems to be stuff originating from Germany spamvertising sites hosting in the States - so I'll be sending off a whole batch tonight. You’ve got a lead on me.
