Warning Ebay Spoof
This is the best spoof I have ever seen
It caught me out and I actually entered my password and pressed enter.
I realised a few seconds later when it didn't take me to an item, and looking more closely the URL wasn't right for ebay but as I say it had
me fooled.
I changed my password within 30 seconds after I realised so I don't think any harm was done!
Copy and pic below:
Cheers
Mark

A new varition on the " Why haven't I recieved my item " spoof.
I have noticed over the last couple of weeks a big increase in various redirection hijacks at many of the PCs I have been working on. I get the
general feeling the overall threat level is pretty high just now, so much so I have dusted off my IPCop box and upgraded it now everything goes
through IPCop and CopFilter.
