Possible vandalism - Srizbi botnet[edit]

It looks like vandalism has happened but I am not completely sure: several times "Janka Threats" and other "Janka *" variations are used in the "Srizbi botnet" article. It seems that is a case of vandalism as these corrupted words are not mentioned nor explained anywhere apart from this article. Substituting "Janka Threats" with "spam" or "unwanted emails", and "Janka Cartel" with "McColo Corporation" or just "McColo" should solve this issue. Ylermicl (talk) 15:26, 30 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
