Ugh, spammers
Ugh, I am so sick of stupid spammers. At least once a week now I get an email saying that a new email address has been added to your PayPal account, this laptopsellers@yahoo.com email address. Anyway, they then tell you that if you didn’t authorize the change to click on the link and notify PayPal. Of course, you aren’t notifying PP because it redirects you to another disguised domain name that is set to steal your username and password and anything else they can grab.
So the first one I got, I reported it to Yahoo Webhosting, where it had been registered the day before, and they took it offline immediately. Same thing with the one last week.
I just reported another one to register.it, so we’ll see how it goes. I’ve also started emailing the person who’s address is listed as being the register of the domain name. Sure they could just use a fake email address, but I tell you what, last week’s one I mailed out - did not return to me.
So anyway, let’s spam these people!! :evil:
And just because they’re jerks trying to steal identities, etc, here’s the whois info, complete with addresses (although I don’t know if they’re valid or not)…

Anyway, a real update later, I suppose. I’ve been working, while Elijah sleeps today, on my new site that’s going to be an online community for some family members, now that I’ve finally got the domain name registered.
