promotesmetasearch.net promotes malware

From the WeAreSpammers blog:

This looks like a fake get-rich-quick scam email which is actually intended to distribute malware.

Originating IP is 5.39.101.233 (OVH, Germany). Spamvertised domains are 8mailer.com on 5.39.101.225 (OVH, Germany) and promotesmetasearch.net on 46.249.38.27 (Serverius Holding, Netherlands).

This last one is kind of interesting, because a) it’s all in French and b) it contains a virus. The malware attempts to download an exploit kit from [donotclick]vodkkaredbuuull.chickenkiller.com/trm/requesting/requesting-pass_been_loaded.php
which is kind of unfriendly, hosted on the same IP address.

The WHOIS details show a completely different name and address from the one quoted on the email:

    Florence Buker
    [email protected]
    7043 W Avenue A4
    93536 Lancaster
    United States
    Tel: +1.4219588211

Clearly the owner of promotemetasearch.net is up to no good, and I would suggest the Anthony Tomei connection might well be completely bogus.
