Spoof phone bill

[wmw999 2,117]

This one nearly had me automatically clicking on it because of the amount. It made it past my usually-excellent spam filter, and it looks just like the ATT bills that I get... Yeah, it's missing the name, but the formatting is similar enough to cause shock to override good sense.

It's a jungle out there

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

I don't ever open a link in an email purported to be from companies I do business with. I always go to my bookmarks and log into my account from there.

I've seen this bullshit before.

I am the same way. There were a few times that I was close to clicking because some how that get my last name on the account, the the three/four digits was wrong.

A general hover of the link also helps too, but best practice is go to type the site in yourself like you said.

I'm usually the same way, too. It was the amount that had me almost automatically reacting

Last month, I got a snail-mail letter saying I had won $260K in a "shopper's lottery". It had a check for $1,700, and said you could deposit it, then send $1,500 in taxes to the UK, and then they would send the remainder to you. The check had watermarks, and was issued by an actual check dispensing agency. I couldn't even count up all the laws they were violating.

Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD

Oooh, that is nasty. I take pretty much the same approach; I glance at my emails from Verizon and as long as the amount is within a small margin of my normal bill amount, I don't even bother to look at the bills. A bill that large *would* cause me to click over.

Check out this crap I received just this morning.

Now here is the kicker: I have been doing a lot of eBay sales recently, including one just days ago for ~$500, (but not exactly $500). So I suspect this ass has been searching info on eBay.

BTW Here is the actual domain name in the URLs on that page:
signin.ebay.com.332-978-438.332-978-438.2n21rhoiv55wggcwu.rbnm7x85pmtrkmukp9uv.net

I think its funny at the bottom of the fake email it says the listing is closed and "andrews92122 is a seller" yet his email makes it look like you're the seller.

I hate phishing scams and stuff like that... Luckily I keep a low profile and don't get much of it to my inbox.

Fishing lures in a phishing scam. Classic.

Standard answer to all emails like that.... You are a useless idiot. May I disrespectfully tell you to go fuck yourself with the largest anal probe in your rather vast collection of said devices. Please be sure to have your usual lousy day that you have built your life into.
