I've got a situation where one of my clients sent me an e-mail with what appears to be obfuscated shell code. The really bizarre thing here is that I see no trace of this e-mail showing up in the mail server and the headers are almost blank.
Has anyone seen anything like this? Is this a cause for concern?
The (obfuscated code) is listed below.
