Paypal/Ebay Spam Scam

holy shit i'm getting tons of these in my email - they look like official emails from Paypal and Ebay requesting you do an account verification.

unless you are savvy enough to know how to read the source code this shit looks real. i have to think there are a ton of people out there who are falling for this scam.

Getting more and more also. Guess there must be plenty of folks falling for that crap. Citibank scam emails as well I've been getting a lot of lately.

Yeah I have been getting them for a few months now.
They really look real until you look at the link property and see an IP address.

I feel sorry for all the dumbasses that are going to get their accounts cleaned out from this.
