eby: Beware!: EBAY Account Stealing Email Scam |
 |
|
I recently received an email claiming to be from EBay. It has Ebay logos, footers, and a form to fill out requesting Ebay login account information for "security purposes".
On closer inspection the FORM method is set to POST this confidential data to a non-Ebay URL: www.gtcomm.net/cgi-bin/bnbform.cgi.
Part of the email header:
Received: from qw23qw2 (slip139-92-173-239.buk.ro.prserv.net[139.92.173.239]) by prserv.net (out4) with SMTP id <200302270603032040599orde>; Thu, 27 Feb 2003 06:03:08 +0000
From: "EBAY" <[email protected]>
Subject of the email: Security alert!
The email's reason for getting the information they request below:
Because more people had hacked accounts we need to resubmit your information, for security and protection please complete this form.
The data they request:
Full Name:
Address Line :
City:
State:
Zip Code:
Country:
Telephone:
Fax:
eBay User ID:
Password: (not shown)
E-mail Address
E-Mail Password:
