    * If the URL is valid, try visiting that web page by clicking on the following link: webmasteradultbouncer.com
    * Find web pages from the site webmasteradultbouncer.com
    * Find web pages that contain the term "webmasteradultbouncer.com"
    Not known in google, also it's been recently created and is 404...definitely a phishing scheme. Report it.

      Actually the URL is http://webmastersadultbouncer.com/webmaster_login.php

      I copied and pasted it from the email and it HTML so the url was wrong.

      That URL does go to a page not a 404

          I just got the same email. I though they may have left out the period after webmaster but that is wrong.

          Someone did register webmastersadultbouncer.com

          Domain Name: WEBMASTERSADULTBOUNCER.COM
          Registrar: NETBENEFIT PLC AKA NETNAMES
          Whois Server: whois.netnames.com
          Referral URL: http://www.netnames.co.uk
          Name Server: NS1.EVERYDNS.NET
          Name Server: NS2.EVERYDNS.NET
          Name Server: NS3.EVERYDNS.NET
          Name Server: NS4.EVERYDNS.NET
          Status: ACTIVE
          Updated Date: 28-mar-2006
          Creation Date: 28-mar-2006
          Expiration Date: 28-mar-2008

          But it looks like the registry has pulled it.

            I still dont understand what they would gain?

            Is it close to pay day - I havnt used my account for years - maybe they are changing the payout type?

              That's not us.

              Looks like someone is trying to steal webmaster info.

              The only reason I can see it happening is to log in, change payment method info into the theives address and redirect payments.

              Thanks for heads up.

                  Im going to bump this - if you are on another board it might be worth mentioning it as well.

                  I wonder how many have already fallen for it?
