Phishers In A Hurry

Well, I have written quite a few posts on the phishing attempts made on my eBay and PayPal accounts recently and also the day when I received a total of 6 attempts over a period of 24 hours.

Today, I received yet another email urging me to click on the link to update my PayPal account adding that I must have it done by 30th June, 2007 OR ELSE. My oh my, are they in a hurry.

While I report all these phishing attempts to the respective companies, I am not sure if any of my effort will help the average account holder since they would not know of the tricks that phishers are up to.

Therefore, I will continue to highlight them whenever I could on my blogs. A blog is a powerful communication tool. Hopefully by publishing them, I would somehow be able to reach out to others.
