The Dirty Dozen spamming countries - introducing the SophosLabs SPAMMIERSHIP League Tables!

Once every three months, we tot up our country-by-country spamtrap statistics for the previous quarter and calculate the Dirty Dozen.

Of course, this is one "competition" in which getting promoted into the Premier Division of spam senders is a cause for disappointment, not jubilation.

The promotion/relegation analogy is particularly apposite this time.

Three countries exited the Dirty Dozen this quarter, but didn't drop any lower than the Serie B of spam (places 13-24 on the table).

Likewise, the three countries that took their place in the top flight all came up from the 13-24 range.

And, just like in your favourite football league, the majority of the high-flyers stayed put at the top.

Welcome, then, to the SophosLabs SPAMMIERSHIP League Table:
