On 9th and 10th of May I got really weird spam from alleging to originate from DocuSign. The attempt to lure me to hit the link was lame and I didn't believe the communication to be valid at any point. There was no DKIM-signature in the e-mail headers. I know for a fact, that real DocuSign e-mail has that in them. So, any quick analysis of the mail originating from USA and Canada was yelling SPAM! instantly.
The subject of the two first ones was "Completed: Wire Transfer Instructions for docusign Document Ready for Signature" and the third one "subpoena from WEX inc". All of them attempted to get be to download a file from an already shut down websites. All three domains used were 12 characters long .ru-domains and looked random strings to me. I don't know if the words had actual meaning, they just looked random to me. The URLs had my e-mail address Base64-encoded to allow the perps to track any incoming clicks for active e-mails.
Of course plenty of others got the same junk as me, there is a support thread at DocuSign's site: Strange email from Docusign - is it legit? In an answer to that one, the official statement says: "However, DocuSign’s core platform has not been hacked, and our customer data remains secure". In that comment thread there are other people, who don't believe that. I'm one of them.
Why would I make such a bold claim? Well... easy. The e-mail address I'm using in DocuSign is unique. I'm not using that specific address ANYWHERE else. So, people of DocuSign, explain me where the address leaked if not from your system! I guess they claim, that it leaked from one of my systems. But then again, the same thing must have happened for number of other people too. Also, I use hundreds of different addresses for this purpose, to reliably determine which system leaked my information. Any even remotely regular user has their joe.user@mail.com-address registered to dozens and dozens of systems, so they have no possible way of knowing who leaked the data, I do.
I'm urging DocuSign to step forward with a truthful statement about the breach. Their current lies I'm not bying.
Update 15th May:
DocuSign got hacked also two years ago. Same thing happened, they deny any data leakage. Without proof, I feel like throwing unfounded wild allegation here: they have been compromised for over two years now.
In the support discussion thread couple of other people complaining about same thing than I do: the e-mail address isn't being used by anything else than DocuSign, still they're receiving junk to that particular address. How come?
