Journal Journal: I helped fight credit card fraud

I got an email today from "admin@spoofed hearders.com" errr.sorry, I mean "admin@verisign.com" The email told me that in order to help prevent credit card fraud I would have to goto thier site and fill in my information...riiiiight. I clicked the link excited to see what the scammers had cooked up..but alas it didnt work. They were trying to exploit that IE hole that shows a diffrent URL then the one that you are actually at. But guess what scammer? I don't have IE, I have mozilla. I sam spade'd the ip it wanted to take me to and reported it to the punk's isp aka Level 3 communications. I forwarded them the email and the chick in the security center told me how cool I was...okay I made that last part up...
