[Dayn W Creative] Google AdWords “Update Your Billing Information” email phishing scam: In this Google AdWords phishing scam, it doesn’t even matter what you enter as login credentials.  I entered nice.try@asshole.com and no password and was successfully “logged in”.  The scammer wants you to get through to the account editing screen where you “update” all your info.  Of course, none of that info is going to Google.  It’s more likely going to a database of other stolen identities to be sold to the highest bidder.

[Volk Defense] Let Go Phishing!: I have no idea how to say (and show) that there are literally thousands of websites that are phishing websites to lure you into inputting your information so hackers can steal it.

[inftek Hosting] What Firewalls Do And What Firewalls Don’t Do: Dealing with SPAM can seriously affect your productivity and, as SPAM often contains viruses and phishing emails, it is also a direct security threat.  Phishing is about fake emails trying to extract sensitive information, such as your bank passwords or credit card details and a variation of this is pharming, where the criminal sets up a fake web site which looks like one you normally use, typically a banking site.
