[FONT=arial, sans serif]The following email appears to come from [email protected] but it points to:
http://205.234.236.23/~ytrindic/

It's a server in Pakistan mzwebhost.com. Contacting their upstream provider.

yeah

i got two of these emails yesterday

knew it was fake when i did a "hover over" the link

also who would attempt to steal my crap names at godaddy?
 
I received 7 over the past two days. I forwarded them to Godaddy, but likely won't do any good.
 
thanks very much Acro, as ever you are always on top of things
cheers. I actually just got 5!
If it had been one i would maybe have clicked but seen the redirect.
I havd already junked them as phishing and redirected one to godaddy support.
Spread the word on the forums guys!
 
NP Pred. The email is very well constructed, also the form page itself that takes the username/password is exceptionally done. I submitted a few pairs such as "fbi_is_coming/sore_loser" - hopefully they will be shut down soon. Just complain using the form above.
 
Whoa, got several of these. Thanks for the heads up Theo.

That is bizarre. A hijacked domain perhaps? They aren't actually using their own domain are they? Would be pretty funny if so. :)
 
Probably so.

Code:
link to a toolkit http://elpos.ba/galerija/albums/userpics2/boom.php
 
Looks like a root toolkit that can perform other penetration tasks remotely. Also it links to http://milw0rm.com which is a known repository of exploits. These ****ers need to be shut down.
 
Yea, DNFers, Mobility, NPers post on your twitter accounts also.

Many noobs (and veterans) may fall for this.

Phew, what a relief.

And to think I had to acually renew domain names.






















=)
 
Looks like the hacking tools have been removed. The IP that was sending the emails has also been turned off.
 
We reported these to GD yesterday and they confirmed was a scam..

You and LegendaryJP need to start your own DN-PI service, you both have solid research skills. I know it's inevitable I'd send some cash your way. :D
