Few months back, India was the least spammy among BRIC countries and as per a new report, India has beaten China and has moved up the ladder!

List of Spammy Countries

list of spammy countries and their contribution to the worldwide spam:

1. Russian Federation 11.92%
2. United States 9.36%
3. Brazil 7.48%
4. Turkey 5.43%
5. Columbia  5.34%
6. Argentina  4.96%
7. India 4.26%
8. China 3.39%
9. Spain 2.69%
10. Republic of Korea 2.57% – as per Trend Micro

Interestingly, 76% emails originating from India is a spam!

I, somehow don’t have 100% faith in these numbers as they are reflective of each report’s sample size (till august, India was below China (6th place) and now the equation is reversed – how does one explains that?)

What’s your take?
