Fishing out the Phishing Sites with PhishTank
Now did the title rhyme for you ? I'm just so tired of phishing sites..A spate of this emails went out to Malaysian users recently and some of them lost thousands as the emails look like genuine emails from local banks over there. Its pretty scary thatphishtank.gif even net savvy users can get caught. So who do you look to when you need to make sure a site is not phishy...Try PhishTank .

PhishTank allows people to submit phishes and track the status of their submissions. People can also verify the submissions made by others.

Phishing scams aim to trick innocent, unsuspecting people into thinking something bad has happened, or may happen, if they don't willingly hand over sensitive information powerful enough to devastate their finances. And if that doesn't frustrate you, consider this: over the past three years, phishing has become a multi-million dollar industry, profiting off fear and false trust.
