The phishing site that was set up to hoodwink Twitter’s users has a second front door that looks exactly like Facebook. The address of the fake Twitter site was twitter.access-login.com/login, but take out the “/login” part and you arrive at the dead-ringer for the Facebook homepage.
…Rohan —Thanks, I should’ve mentioned that the DNS listing indicates the site is owned by someone in China. Of course, the DNS info could be bogus, so no way to know for sure. http://tr.im/320g
I must ask, however, why you’d only be offended at a perceived stereotype if you were a member of the group being slighted? I always prefer to be offended on behalf of other groups — it builds unity!
(Not that I could see exactly what the slight would’ve been this case … that Chinese are more likely to be hackers? I think you could even see that as a compliment…)
Anyhow, thanks for writing….
