Typical PHISHING, beware

BEWARE
This is typical PHISHING that came into my email box this morning:

____________________________________________

Dear Valued Customer,

- Our new security system will help you to avoid frequently fraud transactions and to keep your Credit/Debit Card details in safety.

- Due to technical update we recommend you to reactivate your card.

Please click on the link below to proceed: Update MasterCard (This was the link: http://ww18.mastercardconfirm.com:80...rity/index.htm (DON'T CLICK IT) This is linked to an internal router off someone's computer)

We appreciate your business. It's truly our pleasure to serve you.

MasterCard Customer Care

This email is for notification purposes only. (if its for notification purposes only, why are they asking me to proceed and click?)

Thanks Tony! I am always so leary of pretty much everything in my email-box these days even with my spam/junk filter. I am getting so peeved this crap and the porn I have been receiving lately..it just makes me so mad at these scams..someone would honestly click on that...

Re: Typical PHISHING, beware

Thanks Tony. I hate those e-mails. You know what gets me is the stupid idiots will send it regarding my paypal or eBay account to my e-mail address that has nothing to do with either of the above. I just want to comment back to them and say, DO I HAVE THE WORDS STUPID DUMB A#$ tattooed to my forehead?

I know I can't spell. Ok maybe I'm stupid, but not......

Thanks again. I never click to update ANYTHING. If I'm ever suspicious I go directly to my company and ask.....and usually it's a scam.

If you get those emails from Paypal, Ebay, etc. instead of clicking on the link go to the actual site. Since I work for a bank, we get this sort of internet education in case a customer calls because they got this type of email from us.
