Be careful... This thing had me fooled, but luckily I don't have a Paypal account.
Below is the web site I was directed to....Sorry I haven't figured out how to post a link yet. The link in the e-mail was "paypal.com/xxxxxxxxxx..(I deleted the e-mail, and don't remember the full address) When I checked my history this is the address that gets you there.....What ever you do if you go to the site. Warning DO NOT LOGIN http://www.hymca.or.kr/bbs/ver.ph |

If you're using Mozilla or Mozilla Firefox, to avoid phishing websites do the following:
1) in the address bar type in "about:config" 2) look for the entry "network.enableIDN", double-click the entry to change it to "false". 3) close your browser and re-open it. Phishing websites that use international domain names (show up as &somethingsomething; or %2F %83 in the address bar) will not work. |
