All 13,000 employees of NOAA are receiving spam emails
- dark-star 2y agowait, isn't, like, everyone getting spam emails these days? I definitely have hundreds of daily spam mails in my junk filter. So what is the actual point here?
- curious_curios 2y agoAs best as I can tell it sounds like the emails are coming from _within_ the NOAA network, not your usual spam.
- Jtsummers 2y agoReportedly a distribution list created by (for?) OPM's recent "HR" emails asking the employees to quit.

- evanjrowley 2y agoFWIW, NOAA and it's parent Department of Commerce is one of the rare instances of a federal entity standardizing on Google G Suite rather than Microsoft Office 365. Folks there would be seeing this spam in Gmail instead of Outlook (unless they're using a 3rd party email client). Headlines about APTs breaching Microsoft have been common in recent years, but I haven't heard anything remotely similar about Google.
