Firefox Scam Alert

A few days ago I got another one of those scam e-mails supposedly sent by eBay. If you're not completely brain-dead, you will notice that the links contained within the e-mail actually do not point to eBay at all. Instead, they take you to a fake website like the one in the screenshot above. If you're silly enough to follow the link and you're using the latest Firefox, it will inform you that there is something fishy about the website. Quite a useful feature, if you ask me!
