Google Spam Trick
I just got another one of those PayPal email spam / scams, but this time it had something interesting inside it:
Not just your average phishing. The code is actually a google query for their domain name, which will redirect them to the domain:
http://www4paypal.com/error.html
Are these PayPal scammers trying to trade in on a well-known, legit brand name to forward requests to their domain?
