Today, my very first PayPal spoof/phishing mail arrived. So finally, my e-mail address has been recorded in your average cyberpunk database. Note, that the (Dutch) grammar and spelling in the e-mail is appalling. Just what you expect from a default translation program like Google Translate or Babelfish.

Below is the entire e-mail (incl. headers), where I removed the my legitimate mail address.

Curious as I am, I followed the supplied link, and accessed the so-called paypal website (so don't try this at home). The funny thing that they accept non-email addresses as a login. As far as I know, the default login is your registered email address.... Anyway, the page itself looks oke. Only the URL is a dead givaway that you're not where you're supposed to be (olani.ic.cz instead of a legit PayPal URL).

Fake PayPal login screenAfter login in with a complete bogus username and password I arrived on a page where the real phishing is done. Here they 'require' you to enter credit card details and your social security details. Again, I entered bogus data. Just to see what happens next.

More details to provide to these cybercriminals.You don't wnat to know what will happen to you when you enter your real details. Somebody can relatively easy pretend to be you (on the other side of the world), and all you will have is an empty bank account (if you're lucky), or a criminal reputation.

So, never enter these credentials on a website without making sure that you're on the correct website.

First Paypal Spoof Ever
