Phishing
I just got a phishing attempt for household.com. I have a Household-managed credit card, so I did a quick double-take and checked the URL. The phisher has registered household-verify.com. The address is in Tuscon.
I think that Gilby should take a baseball bat and a couple roommates and go kick ass.
Not too far away.
It appears to be a residential address too.
*Philadelphian accent* You want I should go up der and tawlk to dose guys?

I even got one sent to “accountspayable@lakeareapromotions.com”, asking me to “confirm my hosting account payment details because of an issue with the payment system.”
Apparently, I am supposed to email them my credit card numbers. Yeah,…let me get on that RIGHT AWAY!
I tried to respond to them, but apparently “accountsrecievable@yourhostingcompany.com” isn’t a valid address.
Huh.
