We've had a fair bit of luck with a variant of this:

# Catch common phishing sequence
full HTTP_CLAIMS_HTTPS  /<a[^>]{0,190}http:[^>]{0,190}>[^<]{0,190}https:/is
describe HTTP_CLAIMS_HTTPS HTTP link claiming to be HTTPS -- Phish
score HTTP_CLAIMS_HTTPS 5

That's an HTTP link whose text claims to be an HTTPS link, like this:

<a href="http://1.2.3.4/fake/.ebay.dll";>https://secure.ebay.com</a>

You can see our catches at:

(login demo/demo)

Of course, our Bayes data nails most phishing scams now too...

Regards,

David.
