eBay Fooled by Fast-moving Phishing Scam
Sometimes even the targets of phising attacks have difficulty sorting out whether an e-mail or web site is bogus. In other instances, spoof sites remain online long after they are identified as criminal scams.
Both scenarios are found in a story related by an e-mail security researcher, who submitted an obviously fraudulent phishing site to eBay, only to have the auction company's staff e-mail back to insist that the site was legitimate and that the "bait" e-mail was sent by eBay.
