According to Kaspersky Lab’s spam report, India accounting for the highest at 14.8%.
The other countries are Indonesia (10.6%), Brazil (9.65%), Peru (6.65%), South Korea (5.85%) & Ukraine (3.7%).
Highlights of Kaspersky Lab’s report..!
# All of the countries that make up the top 10 sources of spam are situated in South America, Asia & Eastern Europe.
# This is due to the fact that there are numerous users in these countries and they are, for the most part, not very experienced when it comes to IT security. This makes them a soft target for cybercriminals spreading spam-bots.
# All Gulf Cooperation Council {(GCC - GCC countries are Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates)} countries together accounted for only 1.33% of all global spam, with Saudi Arabia leading the pack. This was attributed to the low number of users and more vigilance in protecting computers in these countries.
