Hi,

It is important to keep everyone aware of phishing attempts, but it's also important to make sure when you send warning emails to simply delete the actual URL that the criminals provide so that nobody accidently clicks on something...

As someone that tends to investigate a lot of things -- though not this specific one -- I appreciate breaking, but not removing, URLs.

E.g.:

   www.example.com

Becomes:

   wwwDOTexampleDOTcom

or

   www.exa BREAK LINK mple.com

So the data is there but is rendered safe for people.

Kind of like making sure that 400V capacitor was discharged before handing it to your lab mate in class :-)
What?!
