Coincidentally, I got an interesting phishing email today. It was  
from "eBay", informing me that a seller had left me a message  
concerning non-payment of a winning bid. They even went so far as to  
provide an item number (funny, I don't remember bidding on an XBox  
360). Clicking the link took me to a very realistic looking eBay sign- 
in page... in Russia.

Checking the source code of the page, I can see that it would have  
also downloaded a trojan to my computer - had I been using Windows  
and Internet Explorer.

So friends, simply clicking the link can put your computer at risk.  
Be careful out there.
