PayPal Spoof

[StonedDevil]

This guy isnt even trying that hard. The e-mail comes from [e-mail] and asks for me to update my credit card info....even though i dont have a credit card or one on my paypal account.....and then the link he gives for updating it isnt even to a spoofed paypal address, or something close like poypol.com or something like that, its to a .org adress......

http://www.rataj.org/images/paypal/update.htm?=www.paypal.com/cmd_update=234234-credit_debit_card_on_profile=database=num23%%%##KslLkIWO%%%32982298"

thats the link he sent out. If anyone can do a whois and find out whos doing this i wouldnt mind knowing, and watch out for this e-mail, the page and the e-mail look genuinely from paypal.

Lol 😃, reminds me of the days when people use to send out fake emails saying they were from hotmail and needed to collect emails for some reason or another :rolleyes:

It is sad that people really go to the effort and whats even more sad is that people fall for these things... :bemused:

...often enough for it to still be worth doing!
