Re: For those that get \"Paypal\" and \"Ebay\" emails
If you PM me the IPs of the phishers then I could initiate a distributed denial of service attack(DDos) against them. I could knock them offline for at least a day. Let me know what you want to do.

Basically it was just an email to the ISP of the hosting site. Usually gets the ball rolling quicker than a direct email to Paypal. Rom [/ QUOTE ] Is there anything anyone can do to put these assholes behind bars or fine them or anything? One ISP shuts them down, they'll just do it again.

Re: For those that get \"Paypal\" and \"Ebay\" emails
I have gotten a few of these to my gmail account, which ironically is not used with my ebay/paypal accounts, they are listed in the spam section, and when you open them, the gmail client has a big red warning at the top stating that this email is/may be not from the original stated sender, which I think is great and would fix many of the problems of people entering in the info thinking it is real.

Re: For those that get \"Paypal\" and \"Ebay\" emails
The easiest way to avoid any scam:
If you get an email claiming to be from paypal, your bank, broker, etc... Close the email. Type in www.paypal.com or whatever, and log directly into the site. If there is a legit problem requiring your action, you will be alerted when you login
