There is a report out that states that 76.4% of all messages delivered in October were spam.
This report states that this number is up 6% from 2007.

Spammers are also using the deflating economy to get past anti-spam filters.  They figure that if they talk about the economy they can avoid some of these spam filters.
These opportunities open many doors to cybercriminals out there.  They use these times to benefit when people are looking for help to calm their concerns.
