Dear [email protected]
,
We recently noticed one or more attempts to log in to your PayPal account
from a different IP address.
If you recently accessed your account while traveling, the unusual log in
attempts may have been initiated by you. However, if you did not initiate
the log ins, please visit PayPal as soon as possible to check-up your
account information:

http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-run
Thanks for your patience.
Sincerely,
PayPal

Please note that the link claiming to point to:
"http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-run"
Actually points to:
"javascript:ol('http://www.joonhyung.com/bbs/main.htm');"

I've already contacted PayPal.com and ReportPhish.org.

Anyone know of any other organizations who would be interested in receiving this?

I'd say antiphishing.org and http://www.ic3.gov/ since joonhyung.com is a US based firm:

Although it's interesting to look at the page and see the following code:

PHP Code:

<html> <head> <title>PayPal - Login</title> </head> <frameset rows="0,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0"> <frame src="cl.htm" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize > <frame src="http://youngadult.iemmanuel.org/zboard/ver.php" name="mainFrame"> </frameset> </html>

That one in turn has this:

Which apparently has some security issues. Moving up one directory shows the contents and one file, system.php, has rather interesting details.

how did u got this?? because i go thru the source and didn't find anything like that and same in the case of etheral i didn't find anything. Can u explain the method from which u got this.

Thanks

@ mmkhan,
Well, the reason I put that in the post is because the link supposedly pointing to
"http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-run"
wasn't actually pointing there. The email was in HTML format, and when I hovered the mouse over the link,
"java script:ol('http://www.joonhyung.com/bbs/main.htm');"
showed up in its stead.

Cheers

check out the dodgy link (DO NOT CLICK THIS LINK ITS DODGY) http:\\204.8.221.194\~cold8\ (DO NOT CLICK THIS LINK ITS DODGY) (DONT ENTER ANY INFO HERE)

some of the graphics are different, and some are missing entirely from the real page, http:\\www.paypal.com but my real question is I've reported it to the abuse people at Paypal but do they actually do anything about it?? Id hate to think less conscious people would get sucked in....is there anywhere else that investigates these people...

They often do something about it. All the sites I reported were removed. Given that this one is in the US they'll probably be able to address it quickly.
