Good thing I clicked that not obvious link and took care of the issue.
Note to phishers: change the reply-to so that it isn't completely obvious you are a douche, akstcamatemnsdgs@amate.us
 


Interesting... My FireFox picks it up as a potential web forgery ("Continue or Ge Me Out of Here!"), and I don't even have an extension for that!
It's so dodgy that my browser can pick it up without extra features!! :D

It doesn't even look like the PayPal site!
You'd really have to be an idiot to login...

Yeah I noticed that too when I actually went to the site. What I find even more surprising is that IE 7 does the same thing! I was pretty blown away IE did something right for a change, I was half expecting it to fill in the fields automagically.
