Adjunct Professor Matthew Prince, developer of Project Honey Pot and CEO of Unspam Technologies, logged Project Honey Pot's billionth email spam message on Wednesday, December 9, 2009 at 06:20 (GMT)
The billionth message was a United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) phishing scam. The spamtrap address to which the message was sent was originally harvested on November 4, 2007 by a particularly nasty harvester responsible for 53,022,293 other spam messages that have been received by Project Honey Pot.
